Barnaby Rudge is a historical novel written by Charles Dickens, first published in 1841. The story is set in London during the 1780s, a time of political unrest and social upheaval. The novel follows the lives of several characters, including the eponymous Barnaby Rudge, a simple-minded young man with a pet raven named Grip, and his mother, who runs a pub called The Maypole. The story also focuses on the relationship between two families, the Haredales and the Chesters. The Haredales are a wealthy family who are sympathetic to the American Revolution, while the Chesters are a family of opportunistic politicians who are willing to do whatever it takes to gain power. As the novel progresses, tensions between the two families escalate, leading to a violent riot in which the Maypole is destroyed and several characters are killed. Barnaby Rudge becomes embroiled in the conflict, and his loyalty to his mother and his pet raven is tested. Barnaby Rudge is a complex and multi-layered novel that explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the struggle for power. It is also a vivid portrait of London during a tumultuous period in its history, and features a cast of memorable characters, including the villainous Sir John Chester and the enigmatic John Willet.As soon as the business of the day was over, the locksmith sallied forth, alone, to visit the wounded gentleman and ascertain the progress of his recovery. The house where he had left him was in a by-street in Southwark, not far from London Bridge; and thither he hied with all speed, bent upon returning with as little delay as might be, and getting to bed betimes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
