Cooper brilliantly bridges the chasm between the wild beauty of North America and the relentless tide of civilization that threatens to change its landscape forever.

    "The Scarlet Pimpernel" by Baroness Orczy is a captivating historical novel crafted in the early 20th century. Set against the swirling chaos of the French Revolution, the narrative follows the elusive Englishman known only as the Scarlet Pimpernel, who undertakes audacious rescues of aristocrats ensnared in the deadly clutches of the guillotine. This protagonist, cloaked in secrecy, juggles his dual identity, creating an electrifying tension as he maneuvers through the perilous political landscape. The novel poignantly explores themes of bravery, loyalty, and the profound cost of sacrifice. 
As the story unfolds, the grim atmosphere of the Reign of Terror in Paris is palpably felt. The air is thick with the stench of fear and bloodshed as the relentless guillotine claims countless souls, its blade gleaming ominously in the sunlight. The bloodthirsty crowd, swelling with fervor, eagerly anticipates the next execution, their excitement palpable like a hungry predator awaiting its prey. At the heart of this mayhem stands Sergeant Bibot, a proud sentinel at the barricades, relishing his role in thwarting the desperate escape attempts of fleeing aristocrats. 
Amidst the growing turmoil, whispers of a clandestine group of Englishmen begin to circulate, their leader—the enigmatic Scarlet Pimpernel—launching daring rescues that confound the authorities and thwart death's grasp. The narrative vividly paints the harrowing fear and desperation of those on the run, contrasting it with the zealous exhilaration of citizens intoxicated by their newfound power and thirst for vengeance. This sets the stage for a gripping tale of unwavering heroism amidst a world spiraling into chaos.

    Richard Doddridge Blackmore was born on 7th June, 1825 at Longworth in Berkshire (now part of Oxfordshire), where his father, John Blackmore, was Curate-in-charge of the parish. His mother died a few months after his birth the victim of an outbreak of typhus. With this loss the family moved to Bushey, Hertfordshire, then on to their native Devon.  His elder brother Richard (by a year), however, was taken by his aunt to live near Oxford. His father married again in 1831, whereupon Richard returned to live with them.  With much of his childhood spent in the lush and pastoral "Doone Country" of Exmoor, and along the Badgworthy Water, Blackmore came to love the very countryside he immortalised in Lorna Doone.  In November 1853 he married his wife Lucy.  And the following year, 1854, his literary career began with a collection of Poems and for the next 15 years he would write in the winters and garden in the summers.  In 1860 with inherited money he built a house in Teddington just outside of London and established a market garden for the cultivation of fruit.  He loved horticulture but having little business experience could never really exploit it.  However with the publication of Lorna Doone in 1869 he was catapulted to fame.  And although he continued to write extensively nothing caught the public imagination quite like Lorna Doone.  RD Blackmore died at Teddington on 20th January, 1900 after a long and painful illness, and was buried next to his wife in Teddington cemetery.
