Produktbeschreibung

Russia.with its wild untamed lands of vast open Steppes, of marshlands, of rivers, of unfathomable people, some as wild as their country, yet with a culture of religion, of art, of buildings of great beauty. Into this forbidding landscape came the French with all their arrogant innocence, proclaiming a victory they had yet to win. Amongst them Guy De Tournet, Captain of cavalry, who kept silent vigil over his own thoughts. It would take more than defiant words to win this war. It would take men, blood and guts. His and that of other valiant Frenchmen; the cannon fodder. The year was 1812, the antagonists Bonaparte, who fashioned himself like a Roman Emperor, and Alexander I , the suspicious autocratic Tsar of all Russia.

Autorenporträt

briefly I have been writing for 3- 4 years now. My first novel Sailor, sailor , set in ww2 and based on my fathers ww2 experiences and Mothers stories told to me over the years. My second The writing on the wall. set in ww1, tells the story of three brothers. This is my third novel, told around the retreat from Moscow, in the French , Russian war of 1812. Poetry plays a large art in my writing, and appears in all my books in one form or anther. I came late to writing in my early sixties, but have thoroughly enjoyed my novels, the writing of them, the characterisations, and the written word generally. I live in the south west, to which I owe a lot of my inspiration.
