The Harp of Colne is a novel written by Elizabeth Haigh Gilstrap and published in 1894. The story is set in the fictional village of Colne in Lancashire, England in the early 19th century. The main character is a young woman named Lizzie who is the daughter of a poor farmer. Lizzie is a talented musician and plays the harp. She falls in love with a wealthy young man named John who is the heir to a local estate. John's father disapproves of their relationship and forbids them from seeing each other. Lizzie is heartbroken and turns to her music for solace. She becomes a famous harpist and travels the world, but she never forgets John. Eventually, John's father dies and he inherits the estate. He and Lizzie are reunited and they marry. The novel explores themes of love, class, and the power of music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
