NATURE TALES FOR WINTER NIGHTS
Edited by Nancy Campbell
Dorothy Wordsworth takes a mountain ramble. Beth Chatto gathers snowdrops. Walt Whitman visits the New Jersey shore. John Clare writes a touching verse on sheep. Winter can be bitter and drear, but it has its own special magic, and this collection of writings from around the world makes you want to pull on your boots and get out there.
‘Barbara Taylor Bradford, leads her readers on another dance to the music of time’
THE WONDER OF IT ALL
Barbara Taylor Bradford
Set against the backdrop of the Great War, the third in the historical Falconer series finds barrow-boy-turned-merchantprince James Falconer waiting in the trenches, nursing wounds that have nothing to do with the fighting. At 90, and with more than 90 million sales under her belt, Taylor Bradford, past mistress of the family saga, leads her devoted readers on another dance to the music of time.
