Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Sylvia's Lovers — Volume 3" by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell is a novel published in 1863. Set in a coastal English town during the 1790s, this story follows young Sylvia Robson, torn between two men: her devoted Quaker cousin Philip and Charlie Kinraid, a dashing sailor. When a press gang forcibly enlists Kinraid, Philip conceals the truth, leading Sylvia to believe her lover is dead. What follows is a tale of deception, marriage, betrayal, and ultimately reconciliation—one Gaskell herself called "the saddest story I ever wrote."
