5-0 out of 5 stars Family findings
The publisher of this book did all of us a great favor .... a beautifully written story, requiring care and quiet to appreciate ... and providing a detailed glimpse into the past of Yorkshire. For us, it was the first time that family legends came to life and explained many things from the past. Googling family names and bits of history and coming up with Mary Anerley as the place to start was wonderful. Amazon was the catalyst for this whole process .... it is a cultural teasure and provider of answers for many things ... from today's consumer needs to history .. far more than a provider of books. Those involved in the chain between Mary Anerley's Yorkshire and today's reader have done a great job ... but the process and the deliverable was impeccably handled by all connected with Amazon. Outstanding service in both US and UK. Look for The Tale of Robin Lythe - a brilliant summary of one of the characters in Mary Anerley. Thank you all for what you do so well. ... Read more

This is the only critical edition of this perennially popular story. Sally Shuttleworth's introduction finds, beneath the idyllic evocation of rural bliss and a tale of love and high adventure, a startling sub-text which rigidly defends Victorian values, and portrays a `manly' hero constantly having to prove his masculinity to himself. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Lorna Doone
This is one of my Fav books. It's All-Over Awesome! Plot, characters... You name it... Lorna Doone has it All!

5-0 out of 5 stars The most complete of all English novels
Lorna Doone is my favourite of all English novels, As an under-rated classic, this is one of the most complete books ever written.
It is a tale with something for just about everyone. It has romance, chivalry, action, revenge, factual history and some great twists of plot.
Written in 1869 but set in the late 1600s, its characters are based around the exploits of real historical figures.
The only thing that may put off the modern reader is the fact that it contains some extra historical narrative, making it a lengthy book. This can be omitted by the reader without being essential to the plot. Just skip through this and enjoy R D Blackmore's best novel.
Blackmore's lovingly detailed observations of nature are always a delight.
For me to this day, it is quite simply the best book I've ever read and I am now fortunate enough to own a copy of the first edition. I cannot recommend it enough.
This paperback edition simply has to be read once by us all.

4-0 out of 5 stars John's coming of age
As a very young child, John Ridd encounters the equally young Lorna while fishing in Doone territory. The Doones, born noble, were deprived of their birthright, and now live in a fortress above the Somerset moors, sometimes emerging to pillage the countryside for food, money, and comely women. It's love at first sight for John, who, in spite of the fact that the Doones murdered his own father, falls hard for the enchanting Lorna. Blackmore's romance/adventure takes the couple through trials and tribulations, and the lowborn John sadly doubts that he can ever be worthy of Lorna. Little does he know of her true origins.

Blackmore, naturally, wrote in the language of his times, a style that tends towardpoetical effusion. The modern reader must summon up the patience to work through the verbosity to find the gem of a story beneath. It's well worth the effort, and flashes of gentle satire and humor help make the journey a satisfying one.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Worthy Book
I shall start by writing that I ordered this book from Amazon after watching the A&E movie, which I found exciting, with a great story full of plot twists.
Then as I read the book, I discovered the story was much larger, the writing more complex and entertaining, as it is a book in the line of the pastoral tradition, taking place in the countryside of England, and also having much of historical detail, and it presents a hero/narrator who is at times self deprecating and is constantly trying to prove himself.
I couldn't help comparing it as I read, to Jane Eyre, the narration gives much of the psychology of the main character, John Ridd and the rest of the characters that appear exist as seen trough his eyes, including Lorna.
I found myself enjoying so much this book and as with all my favorite ones, regretting having finished it.
It made me research to check on the historical characters and facts, adding bonus enjoyment, and cross referenced it to another of my favorites: The English Patient.
I was grateful for all the notes at the end of the book, as for the enlightening introduction by Sally Shuttleworth.
I highly recommend this book in this version. ... Read more

"That is very good," answered the First Consul, smiling with the sense of his own power; "and at an hour's notice, with fifty chosen men landed from the London Trader--ah, I love that name; it is appropriate--you could spike all the guns of that pretentious little battery, and lock the Commander of the Coast-Defence in one of his own cellars. Is it not so, my good Captain? Answer me not. That is enough. One question more, and you may return. Are you certain of the pilotage of the proud young fisherman who knows every grain of sand along his native shore? Surely you can bribe him, if he hesitates at all, or hold a pistol at his ear as he steers the leading prame into the bay! ... Read more
