Hester And I: Or Beware Of Worldliness is a novel written by Mrs. Manners and published in 1861. The book tells the story of two young women, Hester and Emily, who are friends and live in a small village in England. Hester is a devout Christian who is committed to living a simple and humble life, while Emily is more interested in fashion, parties, and social status. As the story progresses, Hester and Emily are both courted by two young men, John and Charles. John is a kind and honest man who shares Hester's values, while Charles is more interested in wealth and status. Emily is initially drawn to Charles, but as she spends more time with him, she begins to see his true character and realizes that he is not the right person for her. Meanwhile, Hester and John continue to grow closer, and Hester realizes that she is in love with him. However, she is hesitant to pursue a relationship with him because she is afraid that he will be drawn away from his faith by her worldliness. Throughout the book, the theme of the dangers of worldliness is explored, as the characters struggle to balance their desire for material success and social status with their commitment to living a virtuous and meaningful life. Ultimately, the book is a cautionary tale about the importance of staying true to one's values and resisting the temptations of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
