Delphi Complete Novels of Charlotte Mary Yonge (Illustrated) (ebook)

Charlotte M. Yonge’s novels helped spread the influence of the Oxford Movement, while exploring many genres of fiction. Her novel ‘The Heir of Redclyffe’ was one of the great financial successes of the Victorian era, tantalising readers with the story of the Byronic Guy Morville. Yonge’s success enabled her to donate large amounts of her royalties to missionary work.  For the first time in publishing history, this comprehensive eBook presents Yonge’s complete novels, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
