Publisher's Summary

Cornwall in the 1780s - when powerful forces of revolution and reaction are at large in the world. The first in the riveting Poldark series.

Tired from a grim war in America, Ross Poldark returns to his land and his family. But the joyful homecoming he has anticipated turns sour, for his father is dead, his estate is derelict, and the girl he loves is engaged to his cousin. But his sympathy for the destitute miners and farmers of the district leads him to rescue a half-starved urchin girl from a fairground brawl and take her home-an act which alters the whole course of his life....

Lovely

What a lovely story.

The historical context is very interesting. I knew nothing about Cornwall and the historical context of England when France was so close to the 1789 revolution.

I just can't wait to start the next.

Happiness is finding the first book in a series and knowing there are more to follow!

Beautifully written, with a narrator who brings the characters to life. I’m excited to take the journey through all thirteen books.
