书籍简介

“随着时间的推移，多林库尔勋爵有机会多次露出他那严峻的笑容。事实上，随着他与孙子的相识，他经常带着微笑，以至于有些时候几乎失去了它的狰狞。”

当年轻的塞德里克·埃罗尔的父亲去世时，他成为他的英国祖父多林库尔伯爵的财产继承人，必须从工人阶级的纽约搬到英国。老人脾气不好，脾气暴躁，苦口婆心，慢慢地被塞德里克善良、慷慨和开朗的精神所征服。

当一个剥夺塞德里克遗产的阴谋出现时，另一个冒名顶替者站出来成为继承人，塞德里克在美国的朋友们为了挫败这个挑战者而参与其中。通过塞德里克的无条件的爱和信任，他教导他的祖父同情那些比他更不幸的人。

'Lord Dorincourt had occasion to wear his grim smile many a time as the days passed by. Indeed, as his acquaintance with his grandson progressed, he wore the smile so often that there were moments when it almost lost its grimness.'

When young Cedric Errol's father dies, he becomes heir to the fortune of his English grandfather, the Earl of Dorincourt, and must move from working-class New York to England. Bad-tempered, cantankerous and bitter, the old man is slowly won over by the kind, generous and cheerful spirit of Cedric.

When a plot arises to deprive Cedric of his inheritance and another pretender steps forward as heir, Cedric's friends in America become involved in order to thwart the challenger. Through Cedric's unconditional love and trust he teaches his grandfather to show compassion to those who are less fortunate than himself.
