' In this book Mr Tegner writes again of this remote district (Northumberland) and his story of the people and animals in the wild, isolated country round Rhymside (Rimside) Moor is unfolded against the almost malignant influence of the Grove of Rhymeside, which broods over the villages and valleys below it. The haunting vividness of every scene has that quality which only Mr Tegner's special knowledge and poetic insight could provide.'
