'Claverings' Summary
The Claverings follows the complicated lives of the Clavering family, a landed gentry who are burdened by debt and a string of questionable decisions. Harry Clavering, the heir, is a young man who is torn between his love for the spirited and unconventional Lady Florence and the expectations placed upon him by his family and society.
