About this book
"The Elder Brother" by John Fletcher and Philip Massinger is a comedy written in 1625. When scholarly Charles stands to inherit his father's estate, his worldly younger brother Eustace seems the better match for neighboring nobleman's daughter Angellina. The fathers conspire to disinherit Charles in favor of Eustace—until Charles meets Angellina and discovers passions beyond his books. Suddenly willing to fight for his birthright, the once-naive scholar must defend both his inheritance and his unexpected love against family schemes and courtly rivals.
