First published in 1906, The Fool of Quality; a picaresque and
sentimental novel by the Irish writer Henry Brooke, is the only one
of his works which has enjoyed any great reputation. The somewhat
shapeless plot is an account of the doings of young Harry Clinton,
who, rejected by his decadent and aristocratic father, is educated
on enlightened principles by his philanthropic uncle. Thus equipped
to fight the evils of the world the innocent yet wise hero does his
best to better the lot of the unfortunate Hammel Clement and his
family, and other deserving cases, in the intervals between the
author's frequent philosophical digressions and commentaries on the
action. This book is the fifth of five volumes.
