Book Overview

Through the vibrant years of the early part of the century--"from 1896 to 1919--"lived the Whitmans, the Pritchards and the Dances, whose lives were destined to be interwined... Jonathan Whitman, his cousin Myra, Anne Louise Pritchard and the enormous Pritchard clan to which she belonged, saw the changing era and the incredible events of a passing age--"an age of great poverty and great wealth, of the Boer War and social reform, of straw boaters, feather boas and the music hall.

Marigold Fields by Diane Pearson

Marigold Fields is another fantastic historical novel by English author Diane Pearson that will get into your head and stay there. I love the way she first develops her characters and then takes them on such fact-based adventures. What wonderful Masterpiece Theater offerings her books would provide! I believe she began writing in the mid 60's. Her latest book, Voices of Summer, was published in 1992. I'd highly recommend every book she has ever written, and bet my bottom dollar you'll love them all. Super reading material. You can't put 'em down!
