The Caxtons, (Volume Ii) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789354849855)

A companion piece to Bulwer-Lytton's celebrated Caxtons, Volume II returns with lantern-light clarity to a Victorian world where duty, affection, and social duty collide. This refined, complete edition offers more than a reprint: it presents a seamless continuation of a historical family saga that blends domestic fiction with broader social critique. The Caxtons tracesrichly drawn lives through schoolrooms, drawing-rooms, and corridors of power, exploring family duty, education and virtue, and the shaping of character within a changing nineteenth century Britain. The form itself-lushly panoramic yet intimate in feel-speaks to the Victorian novel's capacity to entwine personal loyalties with public concerns, a hallmark echoed in the echoes of Dickensian fiction and the broader oeuvre of Victorian era authors. Authored by a master of measured irony and social observation, the work stands as a milestone in Victorian England literature and as an essential academic study resource for students of history, class, and culture. It invites casual readers seeking fresh drama and collectors pursuing complete edition collectors' value, with restoration that honours its provenance for today's and future generations. Alpha Editions' carefully restored edition preserves the cadence and texture that scholarship and readers alike treasure, reclaiming a vanished era for renewed appreciation. This is a cultural treasure for libraries, classrooms, and the discerning home shelf alike.
