The long-lost, first novel by Thomas Bell, author of the masterpiece Out of This Furnace, back-in-print for the first time in over 90 years. The adventures of Brian, the Duke of Malvern, in the mythical land of Illyria. He falls in love with the beautiful widow Eleanor of Luce, the former mistress of his half-brother Francis, who loathes him. Brian and Eleanor embark on a forbidden, passionate romance that threatens the kingdom and their lives. "A splendid book. The writing is accomplished. Life is an adventure, and every man is D'Artagnan, riding through the days." Manchester Evening News Thomas Bell (1903 - 1961), born Adalbert Thomas Belejcak, was the author of five novels, including All Brides Are Beautiful(1936), which was made into the 1946 movie From This Day Forward, and his 1941 classic Out of This Furnace. His memoir In the Midst of Life - his account of his battle with cancer -- was published posthumously. The Breed of Basil was published in the UK as Equestrian Portrait.
