The Road to Ruin: A Comedy is a play written by Thomas Holcroft in 1792. The play follows the story of a young man named Harry Dornton, who is about to marry the love of his life, Maria. However, his father, Sir William Dornton, disapproves of the match and wants Harry to marry a wealthy heiress named Miss Rusport. Harry is torn between his love for Maria and his duty to his father. As the play progresses, Harry's decision to marry Miss Rusport leads to a series of disastrous events, including financial ruin, infidelity, and betrayal. The play satirizes the upper-class society of the time and the corrupting influence of money on relationships. The Road to Ruin is considered one of Holcroft's most successful plays and was popular with audiences during its time. It is a classic example of 18th-century English comedy, with witty dialogue, mistaken identities, and a happy ending. The play also touches on themes of class, love, and morality, making it a thought-provoking and entertaining read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
