Beskrivelse af The Poacher
The Poacher is a novel written by Captain Frederick Marryat. The story is set in the early 19th century and revolves around a poacher named Tom Huggett. Tom is a skilled hunter and fisherman who lives in a small village in England. He is constantly at odds with the local gamekeeper, who is determined to catch him in the act of poaching. Despite the risks, Tom continues to poach and sell his catches to provide for his family. However, his situation becomes more complicated when he falls in love with the gamekeeper's daughter, Eliza. As their relationship develops, Tom must navigate the challenges of his illegal activities and the disapproval of Eliza's father. The Poacher is a classic tale of love, adventure, and conflict between the law and the common people. Marryat's vivid descriptions of the English countryside and the characters' struggles make for a compelling read. The novel also explores themes of social class, morality, and justice. Overall, The Poacher is a timeless story that continues to captivate readers today.""Yes, I do, and I wish we could forget it; but in this instance I do not think you have anything to fear. There is no reward offered for your apprehension, but for my poor boy's, who is now wandering over the wide world; and no one would go to the expense to apprehend you, if there was nothing to be gained by it.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
