Knowledge Web

The Story

"...[T]he story of Catherine Morland, a well-to-do clergyman's daughter, whose imagination runs away with her during a visit to the medieval home of the Tilneys, a family she met while vacationing at Bath. Increasingly convinced that General Tilney, the father of her soon-to-be betrothed, is a brutal criminal. Catherine is chagrined when her suspicions -- which owe more to her love of fantastical novels than to her gifts for sleuthing -- are discovered by her hosts."--Page 2 of cover.
