内容简介 Book Description
This work is an historical novel of high adventure set in the south west of England during the turbulent time of Monmouth's rebellion in 1685. Told through the life of young farmer, John Ridd, it is a moving love story of a man determined to right wrongs and win the heart and hand of Lorna Doone.

The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature
Historical romance by R.D. Blackmore, published in 1869. Set in the wilds of Exmoor (northern Devonshire, Eng.) during the late 17th century, the novel concerns the adventurous life of the yeoman John Ridd and his love for Lorna Doone, a beautiful maiden. Blackmore considered the novel a romance and studded it with the high adventure, dramatic set pieces, bloody villainy, and obstacles to love that characterize the genre.
