Family Fortunes: A Domestic Story is a novel written by Edward Garrett and published in 1881. The book tells the story of the wealthy and influential Fortescue family, who live in a grand estate in the English countryside. The family is led by the patriarch, Sir Richard Fortescue, who is a stern and traditional man. The story follows the lives of the Fortescue family members, including their children and grandchildren, as they navigate the challenges of family life, love, and societal expectations. The novel explores themes such as class, gender, and power dynamics within the family, as well as the impact of wealth and privilege on individual lives. As the story unfolds, the Fortescue family faces a series of crises, including financial difficulties, scandalous affairs, and unexpected deaths. Through it all, they must learn to adapt and overcome their challenges in order to maintain their place in society and preserve their family legacy. With its intricate plot, vivid characters, and insightful commentary on Victorian society, Family Fortunes remains a classic of English literature and a timeless exploration of the complexities of family life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
