by Ann Ward Radcliffe (Author)

This student-friendly edition of Ann Radcliffe's first novel includes student-produced illustrations and footnotes, as well as an introduction by Dr. JoEllen DeLucia, Professor of English at Central Michigan University, who guides readers through this early Gothic novel. Set in medieval Scotland, The Castles of Athlin and Dunbayne explores revenge and features warring clans, imprisoned heroes and heroines, a shipwrecked Count, stolen inheritances and many of the other hallmarks of Radcliffe's later Gothic fiction.
