| Summary, etc |
God is an Englishman more than justifies the comparisons that have been made between R. R. Delderfield and Trollope and Galsworthy. Its hero is Adam Swann, scion of an army family, who has seen active service in the Crimea and India, and who determines to make his fortune and found his own dynasty in the ruthless world of Victorian commerce. His struggles to succeed and the story of his conquest of Henrietta, the spirited daughter of a rich manufacturer, form the central theme of a novel that takes the reader from the dusty plains and bloody battles of India to the teeming slums of 19th -century London, from the chaos of the great industrial cities in the age of economic revolution to the peaceful certainties of the English countryside. God Is an Englishman is R. F. Delderfield's most ambitious and enthralling novel to date, filled with epic scenes and memorable characters (driven by a very un-Victorian sensuality), brilliantly detailed and propelled by a central story of remarkable strength, honesty, love and warmth. |
