About the Author

Elizabeth de Beauchamp Goudge was born on April 24th 1900 in Wells, Somerset, where her father was Principal of Wells Theological College. Although she had privately intended writing as a career, her parents insisted she taught handicrafts in Oxford. She began writing in her spare time and her first novel ISLAND MAGIC, set in Guernsey, was a great success here and in America. GREEN DOLPHIN COUNTRY (1944) projected her to fame, netting a Literary Guild Award and a special prize of GBP30,000 from Louis B. Mayer of MGM before being filmed. In her later years Elizabeth Goudge settled in Henley-on-Thames. She died on April 1st, 1984.

5.0 out of 5 stars The story of a young girl and a mystery surrounding her past, 20 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This novel tells the story of a small girl growing up in Napoleonic Britain, and how she makes two very significant friendships which change her life forever. The girl learns of a mystery to her past which leads to the unfolding of this remarkable story. It is a challenging tale, as despite the romantic setting of high seas and idyllic countryside, it reveals the harsh lessons we sometimes have to learn in life through the struggles and disappointments we face as we grow up. Elizabeth Goudge creates absolutely solid characters and writes a brilliant tale which encompasses all of lifes' tragedies, heartaches, surprises and joys.
