The Man About Town V1-2 is a two-volume novel written by Cornelius Webbe and originally published in 1839. The story follows the adventures of a young man named Harry Thornhill, who is known around town as a fashionable and well-connected gentleman. However, beneath his polished exterior, Harry is struggling with debt and a deep sense of dissatisfaction with his life. As the novel progresses, Harry becomes embroiled in a series of romantic entanglements and financial schemes, all while trying to maintain his reputation as a man about town. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including a wealthy heiress, a cunning moneylender, and a group of socialites who are more concerned with appearances than substance. Through Harry's experiences, Webbe explores themes of class, ambition, and the dangers of living beyond one's means. The novel also offers a glimpse into the social customs and mores of 19th century England, from the lavish parties of the upper class to the seedy underbelly of the city's gambling dens. Overall, The Man About Town V1-2 is a lively and engaging tale of one man's quest for success and happiness in a rapidly changing world.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
