Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Norman Leslie: A Tale of the Present is a novel written by Theodore S. Fay. The book tells the story of Norman Leslie, a young man who is forced to leave his comfortable life in New York City and move to a small town in upstate New York. There, he becomes involved in the lives of the town's inhabitants and learns about the struggles they face in their daily lives. Along the way, Norman falls in love with a young woman named Alice, but their relationship is complicated by the social and economic differences between them. As the story unfolds, Norman must navigate the challenges of small-town life and confront his own prejudices and assumptions about the world around him. The novel is a thoughtful exploration of class, race, and social justice in America during the mid-19th century.""Rash, careless man!"" said the priest, in a more severe tone, perceiving that he had fully aroused the childish superstition of the sick man, ""it is in vain! It is in vain! The fiend has the advantage. You have deserted Heaven--Heaven deserts you! The evil one, even now, enters your room. He gloats upon your dying torments.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
