Description: ANTIQUE ROMANCE (1928) "BLUE RUIN," BY GRACE LIVINGSTON HILL. The book is in very good condition commensurate with age. The boards, binding, and leaves are 100%. The dusk jacket has a 5mm tear along the spine, a similar tear along the bottom, and an area on the front cover measuring 7mm x 30mm of loss. Overall, a very nice book. Grace Livingston Hill (April 16, 1865 – February 23, 1947) was an early 20th-century novelist who wrote both under her real name and the pseudonym Marcia Macdonald. She wrote over 100 novels and numerous short stories. Her characters were most often young Christian women or became Christians within the confines of the story. Hill's messages are simple in nature: good versus evil. As Hill believed the Bible was very clear about what was good and evil in life, she reflected that design in her own works. She wrote about a variety of different subjects, almost always with a romance worked into the message and often essential to the return to grace on the part of one or several characters. If her clear-cut descriptions of evil in man and woman were Hill’s primary subjects in her novels, a secondary subject would always be God’s ability to restore. Hill aimed for a happy, or at least satisfactory, ending to any situation, often focusing on characters' new or renewed faith as an impetus for resolution.
