Malcolm. The Marquis of Lossie. Illustrated
About this book
This beautifully illustrated edition brings together Malcolm and its sequel, The Marquis of Lossie, two of George MacDonald's most compelling historical novels. Set against the striking landscapes of 19th-century Scotland, these novels weave a powerful tale of identity, destiny, faith, and moral integrity.The story follows Malcolm MacPhail, a humble yet noble-spirited Scottish fisherman who unexpectedly discovers that his origins are far more illustrious than he ever imagined. As he grapples with the revelation of his true heritage, Malcolm finds himself caught between two worlds—one of simplicity and honesty, the other of aristocratic privilege and deceit. His journey takes him from the rugged coast of Scotland to the opulent halls of nobility, where he must navigate treacherous schemes, class struggles, and questions of love and loyalty.In The Marquis of Lossie, Malcolm's story continues as he embraces his rightful place in society, but with it comes the challenge of remaining true to his values in a world driven by power and ambition. Meanwhile, his relationship with the spirited Lady Florimel grows more complex, as she too must confront the realities of privilege, love, and moral awakening.MacDonald's masterful storytelling, deep philosophical insights, and beautifully drawn characters make this a timeless exploration of what it truly means to be noble—not by birth, but by virtue. These novels are rich in themes of divine providence, redemption, and social justice, making them a must-read for lovers of historical fiction and spiritually profound literature.
