He was born in a baggage wagon trailing the army to Flanders. He grew up to be a master of deceit. Ferdinand Fathom is the son of a fearless camp follower, taken in by the generous Count Melvil and raised beside the count's own son, Renaldo. He repays that kindness with charm, wit, and a gift for manipulation, scheming through gaming tables, courtships, and fashionable society, and even preying on the virtuous Monimia. Smollett's satirical novel follows a villain as fascinating as he is despicable, and asks whether such a man can ever be redeemed. Beautifully typeset Tydbyts Classics edition.
