In The Roar Of The Sea is a novel by the British author S. Baring-Gould. Set in the 19th century, the story follows the lives of two families living in a small fishing village on the coast of Devon, England. The main character, John Herring, is a young fisherman who dreams of making a better life for himself and his family. He falls in love with a wealthy woman named Grace, but their relationship is complicated by their different social backgrounds and the disapproval of Grace's father. Meanwhile, a feud between the Herring family and their rivals, the Marleys, threatens to tear the village apart. As tensions rise and tragedy strikes, John must navigate the treacherous waters of love, loyalty, and revenge. The novel is known for its vivid descriptions of life in a fishing village, as well as its exploration of themes such as class conflict and the struggle for social mobility.Judith walked backward, facing him, and he turned with his horse and went after her. She stooped and gathered up a splinter of glass. The sun striking through the gaps in the hedge had flashed on these scraps of broken mirror and of white bone, or burnished brass buttons, and the horse had been frightened at them. As Judith stooped and took up now a buckle, then a button, and then some other shining trifle, she hardly for an instant withdrew her eyes from Coppinger; they had in them the same dauntless defiance as when she encountered him on the stairs of the rectory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
