Solid Silver: A Play In Five Acts (1871)

By William Henry Linow Barnes

Book Overview

Solid Silver is a play written by William H. L. Barnes in 1871. The play is divided into five acts and revolves around the story of a wealthy merchant named John Blandford and his family. John's daughter, Maud, is in love with a poor artist named Richard, but John disapproves of the match and wants her to marry a wealthy suitor instead. The plot thickens when it is revealed that Richard is actually the long-lost son of John's deceased brother and is entitled to a large inheritance. This revelation leads to a series of conflicts and moral dilemmas as the characters grapple with issues of love, money, and family loyalty. The play is a classic example of Victorian-era drama, exploring themes of class, morality, and social conventions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
