Book Description
This “finely crafted romantic novel” set in a nineteenth-century England narrates the fortunes of the youngest daughter of a wealthy English family (Yorkshire Evening Post). Jessica Hawthorne grows up a strange, isolated child in the sumptuous beauty of her family home, Melburn New Hall, in the nineteenth-century Suffolk. She is surrounded by all the grandeur and respectability money can buy—but without the furnishings of affection. Robert Fitzbolton, a young aristocrat, is the companion of her lonely childhood, her comfort through family tragedy and the heartache of young love. But is the support of Robert’s friendship enough? Together they flee to Florence searching for freedom and fulfillment. Robert finds what he is seeking, but Jessica is a true Hawthorne and is drawn—inevitably—back to Melbury, to her destiny. . . . “A pleasant winter's night companion.” —Publishers Weekly

Hawthorn
Author: Bill Vaughn
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300213751
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
One of humankind’s oldest companions, the hawthorn tree, is bound up in the memories of every recorded age and the plot lines of cultures all across the Northern Hemisphere. Hawthorn examines the little-recognized political, cultural, and natural history of this ancient spiky plant. Used for thousands of years in the impenetrable living fences that defined the landscapes of Europe, the hawthorn eventually helped feed the class antagonism that led to widespread social upheaval. In the American Midwest, hawthorn-inspired hedges on the prairies made nineteenth-century farming economically rewarding for the first time. Later, in Normandy, mazelike hedgerows bristling with these thorns nearly cost the Allies World War II. Bill Vaughn shines light on the full scope of the tree’s influence over human events. He also explores medicinal uses of the hawthorn, the use of its fruit in the world’s first wine, and the symbolic role its spikes and flowers played in pagan beliefs and Christian iconography. As entertaining as it is illuminating, this book is the first full appreciation of the hawthorn’s abundant connections with humanity.
