A Cathedral Courtship is a novel written by Kate Douglas Wiggin, first published in 1893. The story is set in the small English town of Oldchester, where a young American woman named Penelope Hamilton arrives to visit her friend Lady Augusta Bracknell. While there, she meets a charming and handsome young man named Sir Philip Underwood, who takes an interest in her. However, Penelope is wary of his intentions, as she has heard rumors that he is a womanizer.As Penelope and Sir Philip spend more time together, they become closer and begin to fall in love. However, their romance is complicated by the disapproval of Lady Augusta, who believes that Sir Philip is not a suitable match for Penelope. Additionally, Penelope's father back in America disapproves of her relationship with a British nobleman.The novel is a charming and romantic tale, filled with witty dialogue and descriptions of the quaint English countryside. It explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations, and is a delightful read for anyone who enjoys classic romance novels.Aunt Celia went up behind him, and, Van Tyck though she is, she could not restrain her admiration of his work. I was surprised myself: I didn't suppose so good looking a youth could do such good work. I retired to a safe distance, and they chatted together. He offered her the sketch; she refused to take advantage of his kindness. He said he would dash off another that evening, and bring it to our hotel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
