Description:
London: Duckworth, 1942 Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st UK Edition.. It is the summer of 1940 and England is fighting for her life. In a rural corner of England the vagaries of war bring together a group of people wrestling the enemy within--fear, despair, loss of faith. A web of chance... a fateful meeting in a London street... A lost teddy bear... the wrong train... and the lives of four people were altered forever! A shy, middle-aged spinster was to find a new home and fall impossibly in love. An elderly street fiddler, bitter and lonely, was to take an unexpected train ride and encounter kindness from a total stranger. Two frightened children were to escape their terrors of wartime London and bring dramatic changes to the Castle on the Hill. 296p. Clean tight copy in fading blue cloth binding, some rubbing on extremities, spine slightly cocked..

In this new Ben Grant saga, Eric Collenette gives another story from the war at sea and in his taut, straightforward prose he vividly recreates those tense days of submarine warfare..

Published in 1942, the book tells the story of the military occupation of a small town in Northern Europe by the army of an unnamed nation at war with England and Russia. Although the book never names the occupying force as German, references to "The Leader" and "memories of defeats in Belgium and France 20 years ago" clearly suggest it. Written with a purpose to motivate and enthuse the resistance movements in occupied countries, the book has appeared in at least 92 editions across the world. Numerous editions of the book were secretly and illegally published across all of occupied Europe. It was also adapted for stage and film. The film production in 1943 starred Cedric Hardwicke, Henry Travers and Lee J. Cobb..
