Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Wooden Horse
Through the open window of the drawing-room came, faintly, the cries of the town - the sound of some distant bell, the shout of fishermen on the quay, the muf?ed beat of the mining - stamps from porth-vennie, a village that lay two miles inland. There yet lingered in the air the faint afterglow of the sunset, and a few stars, twinkling faintly in the deep blue of the night sky, seemed re?ections of the orange lights of the herring boats, ?ashing far out to sea.
