Omschrijving

The Tailor Boy is a novel by Jane Goodwin Austin, published in 1865. The story is set in the early 19th century and follows the life of a young boy named Peter, who is orphaned at a young age and taken in by a tailor in a small New England town. The tailor, Mr. Josselyn, teaches Peter the trade and helps him to become a skilled tailor.As Peter grows older, he falls in love with Mr. Josselyn's daughter, Ruth, but their relationship is complicated by the fact that Ruth is engaged to another man. Peter also struggles with his own feelings of inadequacy and insecurity, as he is aware that he is not of the same social class as Ruth and her family.Throughout the novel, Peter faces various challenges and obstacles, including financial difficulties and the disapproval of Ruth's family. However, he perseveres and eventually becomes a successful businessman, thanks to his hard work and determination.The Tailor Boy is a heartwarming story about love, perseverance, and the American dream. It offers a glimpse into the life and struggles of working-class Americans in the early 19th century and is a testament to the power of hard work and determination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
