Book Description
Excerpt from The Earl's Promise, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel In the bright sunlight it appeared like a place deserted by its population - a place rich in every natural beauty, Which there was neither man nor woman to admire. SO far as position was concerned, Kings lough had nothing left to desire. Situated on an arm of the sea, the town, well sheltered from the wild north winds by hills and far-spreading plantations, nestled its houses snugly along the Shore, while the blue waves rippled gently in over the red sandstone beach. Nature had indeed done everything for the little watering-place, and man had, as is usually the case, done his best to spoil Nature's handiwork.
