Adventure

Lorna Doone

by R. D. Blackmore

A young man falls for the daughter of the outlaw family that murdered his own, in a sprawling romance set against the wild moorland of the English west country. Blackmore wrote the landscape itself as vividly as any of his characters. It made Exmoor famous the same way a certain Scottish poem made a lake famous.
