(Charles Edmund) Brock, Charles Edmund The Honourable Mr. Tawnish Produced by Bernd Meyer, Suzanne Shell and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Honourable Mr. Tawnish" by Jeffery Farnol is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a group of gentlemen, including Sir John Chester, Sir Richard Eden, and Bentley, as they navigate the complexities of friendship, love, and duels while dealing with the arrival of the foppish Mr. Horatio Tawnish, who becomes the object of their scrutiny and concern. The tension builds as they grapple with issues of honor and family regarding their beloved, Lady Penelope. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a tense and engaging atmosphere, primarily through conversations among Sir John Chester, Richard Eden, and Bentley after a dog-fighting match. They discuss their concerns over the reckless and dangerous Sir Harry Raikes while expressing exasperation over Mr. Tawnish, who becomes a love interest for Penelope, Chester's daughter. The narrative sets up a humorous yet serious conflict as Chester confronts Tawnish about his intentions toward Penelope, revealing the contrasting personalities and comedic misunderstandings among the characters. This rich background sets the stage for the unfolding drama of love, rivalry, and the pursuit of honor that promises to unfold throughout the novel. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
