A rural English family endures as the Great War ends--and more
storm clouds loom--in this saga from the New York Times-bestselling
author of the Avenue novels. Through hard work and love of the
land, Boer War vet Paul Craddock has transformed the sprawling West
Country estate of Shallowford. With his wife and three children he
enjoys a peaceful country life. But war has begun its inevitable
march across England, and this remote corner of Devon cannot escape
its cruel destruction. Young farmers of the village--barely men
when they enlist--are dying in the field or coming home to a way of
life that is rapidly disappearing. Yet as the Great War ends and
another threatens to erupt, Craddock's faith and the strength he
derives from his family will sustain him and his beloved village
through trying, tumultuous times. Filled with vivid imagery and
timeless emotion, this is the unforgettable story of a farming
family and a vanishing way of life. Post of Honour is the second
novel in R. F. Delderfield's A Horseman Riding By saga, which
begins with Long Summer Day and continues with The Green Gauntlet.
