Ridd's rivalry with the villainous Carver Doone reaches a dramatic climax that will determine Lorna's future happiness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFirst published in 1869, Lorna Doone was praised by R. L. Stevenson and Thomas Hardy and has remained constantly in print. The novel has many aspects: it is a romance; a historical novel set at the time of the Monmouth Rebellion in the seventeenth century; and a new development in the pastoral tradition. Underneath an ostensibly idyllic evocation of rural bliss and tale of love and high adventure lies a solid defence of Victorian social values, and a hero whose self-doubt prompts him constantly to prove himself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dane Books \u0026 Gifts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45230704034092,"sku":"","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/danebooksandgifts.myshopify.com\/products\/lorna-doone","provider":"Dane Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
