Description: *Ordering multiple items from my listings will feature a discount and combined shipping. Order several and save!* "Dombey and Son" is a novel by Charles Dickens, published in 1846-1848. It follows the story of a wealthy shipping merchant, Paul Dombey, who deeply desires a male heir to continue his business. The novel explores themes of family, love, and the effects of capitalism on personal relationships. Through a cast of characters, including Dombey's wife, daughter, and various employees, Dickens critiques the social norms and commercialism of the Victorian era. The narrative showcases Dickens' signature blend of humor, social commentary, and pathos, making it a classic of Victorian literature. William L. Allison & Company, a New York-based publishing house, was in business from around 1869 to the early 20th century, with its operations lasting until approximately 1899 or shortly thereafter. One source says they were open until as late as 1914. Book Title: Dombey and Son Author: Charles Dickens Publisher: William L.
