Demelza
The second book in the legendary Poldark series follows the start of married life for Demelza and Ross Poldark.
A reissue of the second in the riveting Poldark saga, Demelza follows the journey of Demelza Carne, the impoverished miner's daughter Ross Poldark rescued from a fairground rabble, who is now his wife.
The events of these turbulent years test their marriage and their love. Demelza's efforts to adapt to the ways of the gentryβand her husbandβbring her confusion and heartache, despite the joy in the birth of their first child.
Ross begins a bitter struggle for the rights of the mining communities and sows the seed of an enduring enmity with the powerful George Warleggan.
