Chantry House is a novel by Charlotte M. Yonge that tells the story of a family living in the English countryside. The main character, Ethel May, is a young woman who inherits Chantry House, a large estate, from her grandfather. She moves to the house with her mother and sister and begins to learn about the history of the property and the people who have lived there before her. Along the way, she meets a variety of characters, including a wealthy neighbor, a local doctor, and a group of gypsies. The novel explores themes of family, love, and social class, as Ethel May navigates her new role as the owner of Chantry House and tries to find her place in the world. With its vivid descriptions of the English countryside and its engaging characters, Chantry House is a charming and entertaining read for fans of historical fiction.After that we got into a bewilderment. We knew nothing of the future question of temperance versus total abstinence; but after it had been extracted that Miss Newton regarded cards as the devil's books, the inconsistent little sister changed sides, and declared it narrow and evangelical to renounce what was innocent. Clarence argued that what might be harmless for others might be dangerous for such as himself, and that his real difficulty in making even a mental vow was that, if broken, there was an additional sin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
