paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. …

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'The stage is filled from the first with red-coats, gipsies, and Galloway 'Levellers'. Mr Crockett has found again in this sequel to 'The Raiders' the inspiration which grey Galloway gives him with its hills and woods and floods. His descriptions of sky and landscape are always in harmony with the action of the story. To the hostile critic of 'sequels' it must also be admitted that Mr Crockett has produced what, could it be looked at by itself, would certainly have been accounted a most readable and historic romance.' As the second part of the Raiders 'trilogy', 'The Dark o' the Moon' moves the action on a generation. This time the hero is Maxwell Heron (son of Patrick and May) and the story revolves around The Levellers Revolt of 1724. We are reunited with characters such as Silver Sand, Hector Faa and Marion Tamson as well as 'historical' characters such as John MacMillan of Balmaghie and the Hanoverian Princes. Crockett adopts his familiar style of appropriating big historical events and placing them firmly into the stories of fictional ordinary people to illustrate how history affects everyone. There is action, adventure, mystery, subterfuge and love affairs in abundance and from beginning to end, nothing is ever what it seems.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - This book, the last from Mr Crockett's pen, shows happily the gift he undoubtedly possessed of telling a good Scots story. He knew and loved Galloway, her scenes and sites, her legends, her sore trials and stirring episodes. Those who have followed all Mr Crockett has written will not find their interest or admiration diminished by this last work. When Silver Sand was killed in the second part of the Trilogy, 'The Dark o' the Moon,' readers might have expected that to be the end of him. But in Silver Sand, Crockett presents a prequel to 'The Raiders', taking us back one last time to 'The Killing Times' to reveal the story of John Faa (aka) Silver Sand as a young man. It is poignant, gripping and as packed with adventure and romance as ever. Published on the very day of Crockett's death, this story is a fitting tribute to a writer who excelled in his field for over 20 years, allowing readers to experience once more the storytelling magic and evocatively beautiful description with which Crockett made 'grey Galloway' his own a hundred years ago.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Crockett's 'breakthrough' and most 'famous' novel, first published in 1894, this is part of a loose trilogy of smugglers and gypsies stories featuring the Herons, the Maxwells and the Faas. Stevensonesque in style, it is unique in its descriptions of Galloway's coast and hills and still thrills a modern audience. ''The Raiders ' vibrates with sufficient dramatic action for a dozen ordinary novels. We are swept breathlessly on from one exciting situation to another; while throughout the story runs a vein of heedlessness and reckless daring that intensifies the boldness of the effect. Mr Crockett is himself a raider; far into the heart of the country of romance he penetrates, daring much, and proving his right and his might on its highways. He has written a story of really absorbing interest.' Crockett's best known novel immerses the reader in a world of gypsies, smugglers and free traders. Set in early 18th Century Galloway, the young 'bonnet laird' Patrick Heron is an 'ordinary' hero who is driven to extraordinary acts very much in the Stevensonian tradition of adventure romance. Crockett uses history and adds the alchemy of the romancer to take natural description, historical events and local folklore and weave them into spellbinding stories. 'The Raiders' is a fine example of his skill and just as gripping a story today as it was a century ago.…
