Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"John Inglesant: A Romance (Volume 2 of 2)" by J. H. Shorthouse is a historical novel published in 1881. Set in 17th-century England, it follows an Anglican caught between Catholic and High Church intrigue during the turbulent reign of Charles I. The hero navigates royal court politics, fights in the English Civil War, faces treason charges, and pursues his brother's murderer to Italy. This is a contemplative work focused on religious and philosophical debates rather than action, exploring themes of faith, loyalty, and moral conflict.
