Thomas Love Peacock

Maid Marian and Crotchet Castle

Paperback (Forgotten Books May 6, 2017)
Excerpt from Maid Marian and Crotchet CastleMaster to Admiral. The Master, Thomas Love, Peacock's maternal grandfather, had a leg shot off in the great battle off Dominica when Rodney brought back victory to the flag of Britain. And with this grandfather (for his father died when he was only three years old) Peacock and his widowed mother had their headquarters from 1788 to the end of the century at Chertsey: where Peacock himself would seem to have begun that worship of 'the genius of the Thames' which never left him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
