About this title

Synopsis

This lovable and much loved story of Diamond, the cab-horse and Diamond, the little boy who lived over a coach-house and was visited by a lovely lady who whisked him off to the back of the north wind, can never lose its appeal while children are children.

About the Author

George MacDonald (1824-1905), the Scottish Victorian novelist, began his adult life as a clergyman. After a short career in the pulpit he turned to writing, and with publication of his novels in the 1860s, he became widely known. He wrote some 50 books, including poetry, short stories, sermons, and essays, in addition to his novels.
