Mark Westcroft Cordwainer
By F. Scarlett Potter
Published by W&R Chambers Limited: London (undated) c1895

" Florence Scarlett Potter (often listed simply as F. Scarlett Potter) was a late-Victorian and Edwardian author who wrote adventure and moral tales for children and young adults. Mark Westcroft was one of her novels, published by W. & R. Chambers, a Scottish publishing house best known in the 19th and early 20th centuries for producing affordable fiction, school readers, and reference works. The book appears to have been issued in the 1890s, a period when Chambers was promoting stories aimed at instilling values of perseverance, moral integrity, and Christian duty in younger readers.

The story of Mark Westcroft follows the struggles and development of its young protagonist, Mark, who faces hardships that test his character and resolve. Like much of Potter's work, the novel combines elements of adventure with lessons on honesty, courage, and the rewards of steady effort. Set against a backdrop of family, community, and moral decision-making, the book reflects the late-Victorian ideal that literature for youth should be both entertaining and morally instructive, aligning with Chambers' broader catalogue of uplifting fiction."
