Cornwall, 1818. We continue the tale of Ross and Demelza; of the wayward Valentine Warleggan, whose existence keeps open the old wounds of the feud between Ross and George; of Bella, the Poldarks' youngest daughter, whose precocious talent as a singer is encouraged by her old flame, Christopher Havergal, and by a distinguished French conductor who has more in mind than Bella's music; of Clowance, the Poldarks' widowed daughter, who considers remarriage to one of two rival suitors; and of a murderer who stalks the villages of West Cornwall.

Sadly, this series comes to an end.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this Poldark series! From the opening tales, to the joyous ending. The only regret I have is that there are no more books to follow. The performance of Oliver Hembrough is excellent. He brings to life each character in as encountered in the stories. My special favorite is Jud Painter. Graham has researched the the historical era so well and written it so colorfully, that he takes one back to the time as if you were there! Where is The Angry Tide?

The Loving Cup is the tenth in Winston Graham's sweeping series of Cornwall, Poldark. Cornwall 1813. A silver cup lies half forgotten in a dank cave, amongst a pile of stolen goods. Yet the tiny vessel and its inscription, " Amor gignit amorem", haunts the lives of the still-feuding Poldark and Warleggan families, as Ross, Demelza and the ambitious and powerful Sir George Warleggan watch their children make the decisions that will shape their destinies.

Can't wait for the next Audible books in this series to be released!

Of course this book follows the previous books in this series in its excellent performance, and the writings of its author. The many strange words used in the characters' dialects send me searching the web for their meanings, alas many of them are difficult to find. I think they add so much authenticity to the stories that I feel ps\art of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. I have heard that Graham thoroughly researched these historical periods, and I have learned a great deal of English history! I highly recommend this series to all!

All four women - the four swans - whose lives touch Ross' face crises in these years. For his wife, Demelza; his old love, Elizabeth; his friend's new wife, Caroline; and the unhappy Morwenna Chynoweth, these are times of stress and conflict.

Four Swans Excellent

The book continue the saga of the Poldark and Warleggen families. I found the performance of Oliver Hembrough continued its excellence!!
I only wish the seventh volume of this series (The Angry Tide) would be available to Audible subscribers in the USA.

In Washington: A Life celebrated biographer Ron Chernow provides a richly nuanced portrait of the father of our nation. This crisply paced narrative carries the reader through his troubled boyhood, his precocious feats in the French and Indian War, his creation of Mount Vernon, his heroic exploits with the Continental Army, his presiding over the Constitutional Convention, and his magnificent performance as America's first president.

Moved to tears by many of the episodes, and especially his death! How complex was his life! His accomplishments amaze me, his trials earned him my gratitude.
