Nevil Shute's classic Second World War novel is an uplifting,
satisfying and moving story. John Howard is determined to brighten
up his old age by taking a fishing trip to France. However, during
his stay the Nazis invade and he is forced to try to escape back to
England with the two small children of some friends who must stay
behind to help the Allied war effort. As the conflict grows closer,
the roads become impassable and Howard also comes across five more
children who need his help. He ends up leading this motley group of
youngsters through the French countryside, constantly beset by
danger yet heroically protecting his charges. WITH AN INTRODUCTION
BY JOHN BOYNE 'A very good writer...simple, elegant and
readable...a fantastic story' Jonathan Coe
