Description
Lorna Doone, a Romance of Exmoor, is an historical novel of high adventure set in the turbulent time of Monmouth's rebellion in 1685. Against this backdrop, a moving love story unfolds through the life of young farmer John Ridd, who grows to manhood determined to right the wrongs in his land and win the heart and hand of the beautiful Lorna Doone. This revised edition, first published in 1869, has remained a perennially popular choice for readers ever since. With its enduring themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for justice, Lorna Doone continues to appeal to readers with its story of adventure and romance. A new introduction and notes by Dr Pamela Knights provide additional context and insights into this beloved novel, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to explore the works of Richard Doddridge Blackmore.
