Miss Mehetabel's Son is a novel written by Thomas Bailey Aldrich and published in 1877. The story is set in the mid-19th century and follows the life of a young man named Jack Dornton, who is the illegitimate son of Miss Mehetabel, a wealthy and respected woman in a small New England town. Despite his mother's efforts to provide for him, Jack grows up feeling like an outcast in the community and struggles to find his place in the world.As Jack grows older, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with the strict social norms of his hometown and sets out on a journey to discover his true identity and purpose in life. Along the way, he encounters a colorful cast of characters, including a group of bohemian artists in New York City and a mysterious woman who helps him uncover the secrets of his past.Throughout the novel, Aldrich explores themes of identity, social class, and the pursuit of happiness. He also provides a vivid portrait of life in mid-19th century America, with its rigid social hierarchies and rapidly changing cultural landscape.Overall, Miss Mehetabel's Son is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on American society and culture during a time of great change and upheaval.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
