Angels' Work Or The Choristers Of St. Mark's

Angels' Work or The Choristers of St. Mark's: And Two Other Tales is a collection of three short stories written by John Henry Parker and published in 1848.

John quickly becomes a talented chorister and is visited by angels who help him in his musical pursuits. The second story, The Young Artist, tells the tale of a young painter who struggles to find success in his art until he is inspired by the beauty of nature. The third story, The Old Man's Home, is about an elderly man who finds peace and happiness in a retirement home after years of hardship. Parker's stories explore themes of faith, perseverance, and the power of art to inspire and uplift the human spirit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
