| 520 | _a"St. George and St. Michael, Volume 2" by George MacDonald is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative centers around characters embroiled in themes of duty, invention, and human relationships amidst the backdrop of a conflict-ridden England. Key figures include the inventive Lord Herbert, who engages in the development of a fire-engine and the management of a castle during tumultuous times, as well as Dorothy, who navigates her own path of duty and loyalty. The opening of this volume establishes a scene filled with both tension and intrigue. It opens with Dorothy waiting for Lord Herbert, who is occupied elsewhere, while becoming increasingly engrossed in the workings of the mysterious fire-engine, a central element in the castle's defenses. The dialogue reveals the importance of a water cistern in conjunction with Herbert’s ingenious creation, which he believes could enhance the castle's defenses and serve the community's needs. Intricate explorations of invention, national pride, and personal relationships weave through their conversation, culminating in a foreshadowing of the impending conflict that looms over their lives. Dorothy's understanding and management of the waterworks grant her a pivotal role, suggesting a growing reliance on her character in the face of unrest.
