Omschrijving

The Counterstroke is a novel written by Ambrose Pratt and originally published in 1907. The story is set in Australia and follows the lives of two brothers, Harry and Frank, who are both deeply involved in the political and social issues of their time. Harry is a successful lawyer and a passionate advocate for social justice, while Frank is a wealthy businessman who is more interested in maintaining the status quo.As the story unfolds, the two brothers become embroiled in a bitter political battle over land rights and the treatment of indigenous Australians. Harry becomes increasingly radical in his views and is drawn into a dangerous conspiracy to overthrow the government, while Frank struggles to reconcile his loyalty to his brother with his own conservative beliefs.The Counterstroke is a gripping tale of political intrigue, family loyalty, and the struggle for social justice in a rapidly changing world. It is a powerful commentary on the social and political issues of its time and remains a relevant and thought-provoking read today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
