Shifting Winds is a novel written by R.M. Ballantyne. It is a historical fiction book set in the 17th century and tells the story of a young man named Ralph Rashleigh. Ralph is a former convict who is now a free man and is trying to start a new life in the colony of New South Wales in Australia. The book follows Ralph's journey as he navigates his new life, trying to make a living and find love. However, his past catches up with him, and he is forced to make difficult decisions that will impact his future. The novel explores themes of redemption, love, and the struggle for survival in a harsh and unforgiving environment. With vivid descriptions of the Australian landscape and detailed character development, Shifting Winds is a captivating and engaging read for fans of historical fiction.The morning after the storm was bright and beautiful. The breakers, indeed, were still thundering on the shore, but otherwise the sea was calm, and the sun shone into the breakfast parlour of Seaside Villa with a degree of intensity that might have warmed the heart of an oyster. It certainly warmed the heart of the household cat, which, being an early riser, was first down-stairs, and lay at full length on the rug, enjoying at once the heat of the glowing fire which tinged its brown back with red, and the blazing sun which turned its white breast yellow.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
