This vintage book contains Sir Walter Scott's 1823 historical novel, “Peveril of the Peak”. Julian Peveril is a Cavalier accused of being involved with the “Popish Plot”. He is also desperately in love with Alice Bridgenorth, the daughter of a Roundhead. Set in Derbyshire, it is a masterful piece of English civil war fiction and part of Scott's famous Waverley Novels series. “Peveril of the Peak” is the longest novel written by Scott and constitutes a must-read for all fans of his work. Sir Walter Scott (1771 – 1832) was a seminal Scottish playwright, poet, and historical novelist whose novels were and remain to be widely read and enjoyed the world over. Other notables works by this author include: “Ivanhoe”, “Rob Roy”, “Old Mortality”, “The Lady of the Lake”, “Waverley”, “The Heart of Midlothian”, and “The Bride of Lammermoor”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive.
