About this book

Mistress Wilding is a book by Rafael Sabatini. The contents list names chapters called, among others, "SIR ROWLAND TO THE RESCUE", "THE NUPTIALS OF RUTH WESTMACOTT" and "LYME OF THE KING". A passage says that Sir Rowland Blake, "fresh from London and in full flight from his creditors, flashed like a comet into the Bridgwater heavens."

A passage speaks of "the heart and hand of Diana Horton" and says that "Diana fell straightway in love with him and showed it." A passage says that Monmouth "had just supped, with but an indifferent appetite, so fevered was he by the events of his landing." A scene with Wilding has him say, "It’s little matter, perhaps, as the place is no longer mine."
