Produktbeschreibung
The beautifully rendered novel from preeminent WWII historian James Holland chronicling the impact of the war on one British family and their small village Wiltshire 1939. In the small English village of Alvesdon, the Castell family and their farm have been staples in the community for decades. As the threat of war edges closer to their sanctuary, each member of the family finds themselves pushed in ways they never could have imagined. With relationships tested and torn apart, facing both personal tragedy and physical conflict, Alvesdon chronicles the experience of three generations of Castells and those who love them, from the onset of World War II up until the Battle of Britain in 1940, as their individual and collective futures hang in the balance. Drawing on his deep knowledge of the history and tactics of WWII and his intimate familiarity with the countryside of southern England, James Holland has crafted a compelling story that should resonate strongly for fans of Chris Cleave's Everyone Brave Is Forgiven and Millie Bobby Brown's bestselling Nineteen Steps.
