Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating social phenomena of the Scottish Borders and the village of Gretna Green. A centre and refuge for runaway couples throughout the 18th and 19th century, Gretna Green allowed English couples to marry without parental consent due to the legal loophole of marriage without parental consent over the Scottish border. The author delves into the rich history and cultural implications of these marriages, examining both common social attitudes of the time and the impact of Gretna Green as an anomaly that challenged societal norms. The book sheds new light on the customs, beliefs, and motivations that drove couples to elope, and explores the broader themes of love, societal expectations, and the enduring appeal of Gretna Green as a symbol of romantic rebellion.
