Now in a deluxe edition, the epic classic tale of two families wrestling with questions of loyalty, liberty, and love during the American Revolution. At the dawn of the American Revolution, young Isabella Linwood is poised to marry a well-to-do English nobleman. Meanwhile her true love, Eliot Lee, has just joined George Washington’s army. In Catharine Maria Sedgwick’s classic tale of two families torn apart by war, the loyalist Linwoods and revolutionary Lees must reckon with their beliefs and desires in a young republic still defining itself. Over the course of her conversion from proud Tory to ardent rebel, Isabella fosters a growing sense of independence, systematically questioning the institutions taken for granted all around her—from colonialism to slavery, patriarchy to aristocracy. Will her rebellious behavior free her from society’s shackles, or only confirm the power of the status quo? Praise for The Linwoods “A richly textured portrait of post-colonial American life by a woman who lived it, and an engaging novel.” —Historical Novel Society

In the meantime Eliot had been released from his durance, where he had suffered, as mortals sometimes mysteriously do, what he seemed in nowise to have deserved; and passing unobserved into the entry, he had preceded Miss Linwood down the stairs, and was standing within the outer door in conversation with his attendant, so earnest that he did not perceive her approach till she said, " Am I intruding ?" VOL. II. B She was answered by Herbert's suddenly turning his face to her, and uttering " Isabella!" In the suddenness of surprise and joy she forgot every thing but his presence; and would have thrown her arms aroupd him but for Eliot's intervention. " Herbert!--Miss Linwood ! I entreat you to be cautious--your brother's safety is at stake --not a moment is to be lost--is concealment possible at your father's house ?" " Possible ! -- certain. I will instantly go home." " Stop -- pray hush, Herbert. Was the reason of your coming down stairs known to any one, Miss Linwood?" " Only to Helen Ruthven and Mr. Meredith." " Two foxes on the scent!--that's all," said Herbert. " Oh, no, Herbert; they would be the last to betray; but they do not suspect you." " Then all may be managed/' said Eliot; 46 trust no one. Miss Linwood--you cannot serve your brother better than by appearing at Sir Henry's table, and letting it be known, incidentally, that you have seen my attendant." " I understand you, and will do my best. Heaven help us! avoid by all means seeing mamma, Herbert--she will not dare incur the responsibility of concealing your presence. Go in at the back gate--you can easily elude Jupe -- trust all to Rose. God bless you, dear brother," she concluded; and, in...
