Weir of Hermiston by Robert Louis Stevenson

This book tells the story of a young man who is banished from his family by mutual consent and sent to be the laird of a nearby family property.  He falls in love with a young lady there.  The story is confusing as two characters have the same name, and Stevenson didn't finish it, so it cuts off at an inopportune moment.

It reads fairly easily, so it's worth the time if you're a fan of Stevenson.  If not, you may not like to read it, since he never finished it.
