The Master of the Inn is a novel written by Robert Herrick. The story is set in a small inn located in a quaint English village. The inn is run by a man named Simon, who is known to be a strict and stern master. He is a man of few words and is often seen as unapproachable by the guests and his staff.The novel follows the life of Simon and the people who come to stay at his inn. The guests include a young couple on their honeymoon, a group of traveling actors, a wealthy businessman, and a mysterious stranger. Each guest has their own story and reason for staying at the inn.As the story progresses, we learn more about Simon's past and the events that have made him the way he is. We also see how the guests' lives intertwine and how their interactions with each other and with Simon affect their stay at the inn.The Master of the Inn is a character-driven novel that explores themes of love, loss, and redemption. It is a beautifully written story that captures the essence of life in a small English village.1908. Herrick wrote realistic social novels about the conflict between professional and personal values in American capitalistic society. The Master of the Inn begins: It was a plain brick house, three full stories, with four broad chimneys, and overhanging eaves. The tradition was that it had been a colonial tavern-a dot among the fir-covered northern hills on the climbing post-road into Canada. The village scattered along the road below the inn was called Albany-and soon forgotten when the railroad sought an opening through a valley less rugged, eight miles to the west.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
