Mary Anerley is a novel by R. D. Blackmore, first published in 1880. The story takes place in the 18th century and follows the adventures of a young woman named Mary Anerley, who is forced to flee her home in Devonshire and seek refuge with her aunt in London. Along the way, she encounters a group of smugglers, who are involved in a plot to overthrow the government. Mary becomes embroiled in their scheme and finds herself torn between her loyalty to her country and her sympathy for the smugglers. The novel is a thrilling tale of adventure, romance, and political intrigue, and is considered one of Blackmore's most engaging works. With its vivid descriptions of the English countryside and its colorful cast of characters, Mary Anerley is a classic of Victorian literature that continues to captivate readers today.The mouth of that cave is two fathoms wide for a longish bit of channel; and, Mary dear, if I had not been supported by continual thoughts of you, I must have gone against the sides, or downright to the bottom, from the waves keeping knocking me about so. I may tell you that I felt that I should never care again, as my clothes began to bag about me, except to go down to the bottom and be quiet, but for the blessed thought of standing up some day, at the 'hymeneal altar, ' as great people call it, with a certain lovely Mary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
