Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the enigmatic life of Sir Charles Henry Frankland, an enigmatic baronet and customs collector in Boston during the 18th century. The author meticulously pieces together Frankland's story through colonial papers, personal letters, and family accounts. As the narrative unfolds, we glimpse the vibrant social and political landscape of pre-Revolutionary Boston, where Frankland's aristocratic background and lavish lifestyle set him apart from the puritanical community. At the heart of the book lies the story of Agnes Surriage, a young woman from humble beginnings who captivates Frankland's heart, leading to a controversial relationship that shakes the town. Through the lens of their lives, the author explores themes of class, ambition, and the complex social dynamics that shaped this era. This book offers a captivating exploration of a forgotten figure and provides valuable insights into the intriguing intersection of love, power, and societal norms in Colonial America.
