Fairly easy to read. Transcribed from the 1909 Smith, Elder and Co. edition by Les Bowler "In Kedar's Tents" by Henry Seton Merriman is a historical novel written during the early 20th century. The book explores political upheaval and personal conflict against the backdrop of the Chartist movement in England, with a significant focus on the life of Geoffrey Horner, a well-born Radical who finds himself caught in the fervor of revolution and extremist actions. The opening of the novel introduces us to a tumultuous scene as Geoffrey Horner participates in a Chartist meeting during a stormy night in Northumberland. We see him navigating the heated atmosphere of discontent among the working class as they contemplate taking violent action against a local political figure, Sir John Pleydell. Horner grapples with his own beliefs about the movement, torn between moral persuasion and the lure of physical force. This initial chapter sets the stage for the subsequent events that intertwine Horner's struggles with both personal relationships and the broader societal changes taking place in 19th-century England. The tension escalates when a confrontation ensues following the meeting, culminating in a violent clash which leaves both Horner and another key character, Alfred Pleydell, deeply affected.
