Card - A Story of Adventure in the Five Towns Synopsis

Set in a small industrial town at the start of the 20th century, this is the humorous story of Edward "e;Denry"e; Machin. Denry is an impulsive, opportunistic, and occasionally lucky entrepreneur with few scruples where money-making is concerned. Not especially likeable yet not entirely loathsome, Denry makes for a very entertaining character to both the fictional townsfolk and readers of this tale alike. A story full of hilarity and sure to entertain any reader, this book is an ideal addition to any bookshelf and a veritable must-read for fans of Bennett's work. Enoch Arnold Bennett was an English writer, most renowned as a novelist but also working in other fields such as journalism, film, and propaganda. Originally written in 1911, we are proud to republish this classic book now with a new introductory biography of the author.
