Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Armin of the West The lanes of mid-Devon are very muddy in winter time. None more so than those which descend into the old coach-road between Okehampton and the village of Sticklepath. They are like muddy tributaries feeding a river. There is plenty of traffic along this road, especially on Saturday, which is market day in Okehampton; but the lanes are always lonely. They are dark, too, and the lop-sided oaks which stretch their crooked branches from one stone hedge to the other creak as the wind from Dartmoor strikes them. It is that wind which makes them lop-sided. When strangers meet in one of these lanes they can hardly pass without a word of greeting. When one stranger is a young man and the other a young maid there is often a certain amount of awkwardness; with blushes on one side and bold glances on the other. Sometimes the bold glances are reciprocated, which is natural enough, if foolish, and dangerous - especially so when the primroses are in bud and there is warm sunshine falling between the oak-branches. The lanes which descend into the Okehampton road are very lonely, and there are no prying Pauls behind the primroses and young ferns. Narrow and crooked ideas must have dominated the minds of the folk who constructed these lanes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
