Broke of Covenden is a novel written by John Collis Snaith. The story is set in the early 20th century and revolves around the protagonist, Broke, who is the son of a wealthy businessman. However, Broke is not interested in following in his father's footsteps and instead dreams of becoming an artist.Broke's life takes a dramatic turn when his father suddenly dies, leaving him penniless. Broke is forced to leave his comfortable life in London and move to the small town of Covenden, where he must start from scratch. He finds a job as a clerk in a local store and begins to make new friends, including a young woman named Hilda.As Broke settles into his new life, he discovers that Covenden is not as idyllic as it first appears. The town is plagued by poverty and corruption, and Broke soon finds himself caught up in a web of deceit and intrigue. He must use all his wits and creativity to navigate the dangerous waters of Covenden and protect himself and those he cares about.Overall, Broke of Covenden is a compelling tale of one man's struggle to find his place in the world and overcome the obstacles that stand in his way. Snaith's vivid descriptions of the town and its inhabitants bring the story to life, and readers will find themselves rooting for Broke as he faces one challenge after another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
