Hobson's Choice
# A Masterpiece of Lusty, Gusty, Rowdy Entertainment
📜 Overview:
Henry Hobson owns and tyrannically runs a successful Victorian boot maker’s shop in Salford, England.

When he declares that there will be ‘no marriages’ to avoid the expense of marriage settlements at £500 each, his eldest daughter Maggie rebels.
