More about the book

Set before the Constitution of 1782, the narrative follows four generations of the Rackrent heirs, each characterized by their unique flaws: the reckless Sir Patrick, the litigious Sir Murtagh, the cruel Sir Kit, and the generous but imprudent Sir Condy. Their mismanagement of the estate unfolds through the perspective of their steward, Thady Quirk, whose son, Jason, ultimately navigates the chaos to restore order and benefit from the family's legacy. The story explores themes of inheritance, folly, and shrewdness.
