Sea Thrift is a novel by Dollie Radford that explores the lives of two women, Mary and Rhoda, who live in a small fishing village on the coast of England. Mary is a young widow who is struggling to raise her son and make ends meet, while Rhoda is an older woman who has lived in the village all her life and is known for her herbal remedies and healing powers.As the story unfolds, Mary and Rhoda become friends and confidantes, sharing their hopes, fears, and secrets with each other. Mary is haunted by the memory of her husband, who died at sea, and struggles to move on with her life. Rhoda, meanwhile, is facing her own challenges as she tries to pass on her knowledge of herbal medicine to the next generation.Throughout the novel, Radford vividly depicts the rugged beauty of the coastal landscape and the harsh realities of life in a fishing village. She also explores themes of grief, loss, and the power of friendship and community.Sea Thrift is a poignant and beautifully written novel that will resonate with readers who enjoy stories about the complexities of human relationships and the resilience of the human spirit.They hid from us as soon as we began swimming about. We heard them sing the same song over and over and over, and we tried to find them; but we did not see them again until we tried to come in. Then the little hands and arms helped us back in the same way, and, as we stepped on to the firm sand, they all arose from the water and took hands, and danced away across the sea along the silvery path. We waited a long time for them to come back, but they did not sing or come any more, so we ran home and climbed in at the window again and went to bed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
