Book Description

NOW A MASTERPIECETM SERIES ON PBS® The gripping third book of historical fiction in the Poldark Saga following a family of revolutionary characters through romance, struggle, and the promise of new life. Revolutionary war veteran Ross Poldark faces the darkest hour of his life in this third novel of the Poldark Saga. Reeling from the tragic death of a loved one, Poldark vents his grief by urging impoverished locals to salvage the contents of a ship run aground in a storm—an act that demands death by hanging in the eyes of British law. Ross is brought to trial for his involvement, and despite their stormy marriage, Demelza tries to rally support for her husband, to save him and their family. But there are enemies in plenty who would be happy to see Ross convicted, not least of which is George Warleggan, the powerful banker whose personal rivalry with Ross grows ever more intense and threatens to completely destroy the Poldarks. And into this turbulent family saga, Jeremy Poldark, Ross and Demelza's first son, is born... The Poldark series is Winston Graham's masterwork, evoking the historical period and characters like only he can and creating an engrossing romance of rich and poor, loss and love, sure to engage fans of Downton Abbey and Outlander.

Book Description

Never before has period drama offered viewers such an assortment of complex male characters, from transported felons and syphilitic detectives to shell shocked soldiers and gangland criminals. Neo-Victorian Gothic fictions like Penny Dreadful represent masculinity at its darkest, Poldark and Outlander have refashioned the romantic hero and anti-heritage series like Peaky Blinders portray masculinity in crisis, at moments when the patriarchy was being bombarded by forces like World War I, the rise of first wave feminism and the breakdown of Empire. Scholars of film, media, literature and history explore the very different types of maleness offered by contemporary television and show how the intersection of class, race, history and masculinity in period dramas has come to hold such broad appeal to twenty-first-century audiences.
