About this film

LibriVox recording of The Armourer's Prentices by Charlotte Mary Yonge. Read in English by Lynne Thompson; Fiddlesticks; Elise C. Boucher; Natalie Paula; AlaynaMay; Adele de Pignerolles; Esther ben Simonides Set in the sixteenth century, two young boys are left orphans and are turned out of their home by their older brother, or, more particularly, his shrewish wife. John has taken over their father's position as verdurer, but what are young Ambrose and Stephen to do? Visit and seek counsel from their old and infirm uncle, who lives on charity after leading a military life? Or chase the dream of finding their ne'er-do-well maternal uncle, who has reputedly made his fortune in the king's court. - Summary by Lynne Thompson For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
