Dartmoor cycle, 17 Al Haines "The Whirlwind" by Eden Phillpotts is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book appears to center around the life of Daniel Brendon, a young man with aspirations and a strong work ethic, as he begins a new chapter at Ruddyford Farm amidst the backdrop of Devon's Dartmoor. Themes of ambition, the struggle between modern ideals and traditional ways, and interpersonal relationships, particularly as they play out in rural life, are likely explored throughout the narrative. The opening portion establishes a rich, atmospheric setting as Daniel arrives at his new home, Ruddyford, after a period of idleness due to personal loss. As he contemplates the land before him, he feels a sense of responsibility and eagerness to improve the farm's fortunes through his labor and knowledge. His early interactions with the farm's inhabitants, particularly the lively banter with the old servant John Prout and the chance encounter with Sarah Jane Friend, indicate budding relationships that may have significant implications in the story. The contrasting lives and dreams of the surrounding community also begin to emerge, hinting at the complexities that will unfold as the plot develops.
