The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young girl named Nelly, who grows up in a small coastal village in Scotland. Nelly is the daughter of a fisherman and spends her days helping her father and playing with her childhood friend, Jamie.As Nelly grows older, she becomes increasingly aware of the differences between her and Jamie. While she is content with her simple life, Jamie dreams of leaving the village and making something of himself. Nelly's world is turned upside down when she meets a wealthy young man named Ronald, who is visiting the village on holiday. Despite their different backgrounds, Nelly and Ronald fall in love and begin a secret relationship.As their relationship deepens, Nelly is forced to confront the realities of her situation. She knows that her father would never approve of her relationship with Ronald, and that their social differences make it unlikely that they will ever be able to be together. Nelly is torn between her love for Ronald and her loyalty to her family and her community.Rock Cleavage is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of class, love, and loyalty.

All stitched into plain paper wrappers, occasional mark on the covers, otherwise in very good condition with unsigned author's presentation inscription in one item. *David Forbes (1828-1876) was born in Douglas, Isle of Man, the brother of Edward Forbes, and received his early education there and at Brentwood in Essex. He sudied chemistry at the University of Edinburgh, and was appointed superintendent of the mining and metallurgical works at Espedal in Norway. Subsequently, he became a partner in the firm of Evans & Askin, nickel-smelters, of Birmingham, and in that capacity during the years 1857-1860 he visited Chile, Bolivia and Peru. Besides reports for the Iron and Steel Institute, of which, during the last years of his life, he was foreign secretary, he wrote upwards of 50 papers on scientific subjects, including: The Action of Sulphurets on Metallic Silicates at High Temperatures; The Relations of the Silurian and Metamorphic Rocks of the south of Norway; The Causes producing Foliation in Rocks; The Chemical Composition of the Silurian and Cambrian Limestones; The Geology of Bolivia and Southern Peru and The Mineralogy of Chile. His observations on the geology of South America were given in a masterly essay, and these and subsequent researches threw much light on igneous and metamorphic phenomena and on the resulting changes in rock formations. He also contributed important articles on chemical geology to the Chemical News and Geological Magazine (1867 and 1868). In England he was a pioneer in microscopic petrology. He was elected F.R.S. in 1858. He died in London and is buried in Kensal Green Cemetery, London. His collection of books and mineralogical specimens were bought by Owens College, Manchester: the books have remained in the library (now the John Rylands University Library) and the specimens in the Manchester Museum.…
