Unique Elements
Irish Satirical Fiction written in times before the morrow, sophisticated in a way modern stories lack.

A true book of worth, a classic that lives in an era of timeless distinction. Early books emit an excellence unlike any from modern times. You will not be dissatisfied with this works.

Sneak Peek
“Let the man who has to make his fortune in life remember this maxim. Attacking is his only secret. Dare, and the world always or, if it beat you sometimes, dare again, and it will succumb.”

Synopsis
Barry Lyndon is a picaresque novel by William Makepeace Thackeray, and is about a member of the Irish gentry trying to become a member of the English aristocracy.
Redmond Barry of Ballybarry, born to a genteel but ruined Irish family, fancies himself a gentleman. At the prompting of his mother, he learns what he can of courtly manners and swordplay, but fails at more scholarly subjects like Latin. He is a passionate, hot-tempered young man who develops a deep love for Nora, his cousin. She is looking for a possibility with more available money because she is a spinster and a few years older than Redmond.

The lad tries to engage in a duel with Nora's suitor, an English officer named John Quin. He is made to think that he has killed the man, though his pistol was actually loaded with tow, a dummy load of heavy, knotted fibres. Quin, struck with the harmless load, faints in fright.

Redmond flees to Dublin, where he quickly falls in with bad company in the way of con artists, and soon loses all his money. Pursued by creditors, he enlists as a common private in a British Army infantry regiment headed for service in Germany during the Seven Years' War.
