One Of Our Conquerers (1898)

By George Meredith

Book Overview

One Of Our Conquerers is a novel written by George Meredith and published in 1898. The book follows the story of a young and ambitious politician named Victor Radnor, who is determined to climb the social and political ladder in Victorian England. Radnor is a charming and charismatic figure who quickly rises to prominence, but his success comes at a cost. As he becomes more powerful, he begins to lose touch with his principles and values, and he finds himself increasingly isolated from those around him. The novel explores themes of ambition, power, and the corrupting influence of success, as well as the complex relationships between men and women in Victorian society. Through Radnor's story, Meredith offers a critical commentary on the political and social landscape of his time, and provides a vivid portrait of a man consumed by his own ambition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
