Dark prophecies and ominously symbolic events beset the romance of Edgar, Master of Ravenswood, and Lucy Ashton, daughter of the man who has displaced the ancient Ravenswood family from its ancestral home.

His desire for vengeance is challenged and eventually defeated by his love for Sir William's gentle daughter, but his new spirit of reconciliation is frustrated by political divisions and the determined opposition of Lucy's domineering mother.

Sir Walter Scott is everything you would expect him to be. He captures the essence of a great romance. He is skillful at using comedy and he is very adept with the everyday Scottish vernacular of the 1800's. The scottish vernacular can be a little difficult to understand, as an average american, but it is worth the effort.
If you want to be transported back to a Scotland of yesteryear where gentlemen did not work from 9-5 and ladies didn't wear slacks, this book is your ticket. Beware, though, you may end up crying.
