A compelling tale of crime, punishment, and redemption, The Poacher explores the harsh realities of rural England in the 19th century. Following the life of George, a young man who turns to poaching out of necessity, the novel examines themes of social injustice, morality, and survival in an unforgiving world. Written by Captain Frederick Marryat, best known for his naval adventure stories, this novel showcases his keen insight into human nature and the struggles of the lower classes in Victorian society.
