Excerpt from Sheila VedderCertainly it is not the life of yesterday, but when the tale is the tale of love, years make no differ ence. Love is everlastingly fresh and young. And as for daily life, it was good and bad then, just as it is good and bad now. For the glamour of hyperborean seas and skies, and the charm of a national life nearly passed away forever, do not alter the fact that men and women all over the civilised world are essentially the same. All live and move and have their being for love - love of God, love of family, home, and country, love of liberty, truth, and honour. So, then, as love can make the whole world kin, my little Shetland tale may slip into the hearts of men and women, whether they dwell in thousand-streeted cities, or in misty hamlets by seashore, or forest - al.l will understand it. Love is its own inspiration.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
