About this ebook
Susan Ferrier’s novel "Marriage", published in 1818, is a good read and interesting in a number of ways, one of which is its Scottishness.
"Marriage" is the shrewdly observant tale of a young woman's struggles with parental authority and courtship. Like her contemporaries, Maria Edgeworth and Jane Austen, Susan Ferrier adopts an ideal of rational domesticity, illustrating the virtues of a reasonable heroine who learns to act for herself.
Susan Ferrier's first novel tells the story of an English heiress, Lady Juliana, who elopes with an impoverished Scot, Henry Douglas, and has to adjust to living in a run-down castle in the Highlands.
