8th August 1914... In the sequel to the acclaimed novel, The
Baker's Story, award-winning author Alan Reynolds continues the
historical drama following the Marsden family into the depths of
the First World War. Mildred Marsden, the family matriarch, can
only watch as the conflict takes her family in different directions
with mixed fortunes. Using detailed research, we are transported
back to the horrors of the trench warfare in Flanders and witness
the effects on the serving soldier. We learn too about the bravery
of the female volunteer ambulance crews as they strive to save the
lives of the wounded in what has been described as the first
example of 'industrial warfare'. At home, meanwhile, the social
divide is all too apparent as life for many continues as normal in
blissful ignorance of the sacrifices of others. Another gripping
tale, carefully crafted to provide the reader with an insight into
the world of our great, great grandparents at the time of their
greatest challenges.
