Description: Lorna Doone is the story of how John Ridd, an unsophisticated farmer, falls in love with the beautiful and aristocratic Lorna Doone, kidnapped as a child by the outlaw Doones on Exmoor. The novel is multi-faceted: 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.
