Lorna Doone: A Romance of Exmoor by R D Blackmore (Paperback / softback, 2015)

About this product

About this product

Product Information

This work is called a 'romance, ' because the incidents, characters, time, and scenery, are alike romantic. And in shaping this old tale, the Writer neither dares, r desires, to claim for it the dignity or cumber it with the difficulty of an historic vel. And yet he thinks that the outlines are filled in more carefully, and the situations (however simple) more warmly coloured and quickened, than a reader would expect to find in what is called a 'legend.' And he kws that any son of Exmoor, chancing on this volume, cant fail to bring to mind the nurse-tales of his childhood-the savage deeds of the outlaw Doones in the depth of Bagworthy Forest, the beauty of the hapless maid brought up in the midst of them, the plain John Ridd's Herculean power, and (memory's too congenial food) the exploits of Tom Faggus.
