The continuing story of the Whitman family... A 'God is an Englishman' kind of novel - about a very human kind of Englishwoman, a woman who fought her way up from domestic service to schoolmistress and whose life was touched by three men, one who taught her what it was to love and be loved, another who waited for her in vain, and a third - the strange tormented man who was to be her destiny. Rich in adventure, history and human passions, this is a novel of astonishing breadth...an enthralling panorama of life and love between the wars...
