It is an easy matter to spend more time at Uncle Babington's house, where there is to be found riding, hunting, fishing . . . and lively girl-cousins who dote on him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Squire hopes to instill the youth with knowledge that politics is better than hunting rats in the cornfield, and hates the idea of John whiling away his time with that Humphrey Babington -- who has not an idea in his head -- and those hearty, mindless daughters of his! Uncle Babington, meanwhile, takes a kindly interest in the boy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo the rupture begins, fueled by confrontations and unkind words -- and by Daniel Caldigate's discovery of a nephew who seems much more akin to him than his own son . . . and who might make a more fitting heir to Folking than would John, who has become strangely interested in gold-mining -- in Australia!\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 24, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47495013335261,"sku":"9781606642511","price":25.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/nENIz7oKhC9781606642511.webp?v=1771966760","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/john-caldigate-volume-i-of-ii-by-anthony-trollope-fiction-literary-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
