By Mary Elizabeth Mann

Book Overview

""The Parish of Hilby: A Simple Story of a Quiet Place"" is a novel written by Mrs. Fairman Mann and published in 1883. The book tells the story of a small rural community in England called Hilby and its inhabitants. The author describes the daily lives of the people who live there, their struggles, their joys, and their relationships with each other. The story is told through the eyes of a young woman named Mary, who moves to Hilby with her family and becomes involved in the community. She observes the comings and goings of the villagers, their social events, and their religious practices. The book is a portrayal of rural life in the 19th century, and it offers a glimpse into a world that has long since disappeared. It is a gentle and nostalgic work that celebrates the simplicity of life in a quiet place, where the ties of community and family are strong.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
