Although written in 1879 and serialized in a local paper,
The Duke of Stockbridge was not published in book form until 1900, when it was revised following Bellamy’s death.
The Duke of Stockbridge is set in the past: during Shay’s Rebellion of 1786. It’s soft and romantic, but hidden inside the sentimentality are hints of Bellamy’s political ideas.
