Product Information
Uprooted from her beloved Great Western Beach, Emma Smith moves with her family from Newquay to the Devonshire village of Crapstone. But the dust has hardly settled when tragedy strikes, and Emma's father, a DSO-decorated hero of the Great War, is so frustrated by the hardship of life as a lowly bank clerk and by his thwarted artistic ambitions that he suffers a catastrophic breakdown - from which disaster Emma's resourceful mother rallies courageously. Then, in 1939, the war again becomes a reality. Emma's sister Pam at once enlists with the WAAF and Jim, her politically minded brother, after initially declaring himself a pacifist, joins the RAF. But what should Emma, aged only sixteen, do? Secretarial collage equips her for a job with MI5 but it's dull work and Emma yearns for fresh air. She is rescued by a scheme taking on girls as crew for canal boats. Freedom! The war over, Emma travels to India with a documentary film company, lives in Chelsea, falls in love in France and spends time in Paris where she sets about mending a broken heart by writing her first novel. Sitting beside the Seine during a heatwave with her typewriter on her knees, she is unwittingly snapped by legendary photographer Robert Doisneau. The zest, thirst for life and buoyant spirits of Emma, as she recalls in evocative detail the quality of England in the thirties and forties give As Green as Grass the feel of a ready-made classic.

- c***m (122)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaExcellent service: ordered late on Sunday, good tracking, delivered by Royal Mail on Wednesday. The book was well wrapped , correct description of condition (good). Low price.
- y***y (100)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaItem (2nd hand book) was not in the condition advertised. Was sold as "very good" condition but had signs of water/damp damage. Seller was excellent in handling this though and offered 30% reduction in price which I asked them to inc to 50%. They accepted and I kept the book. Was disappointed overall because was rare opportunity to get this particular book at a good price and what I had hoped would be in a very good condition. Happy to give positive feedback for what is obviously a good sellerThe Generals (Revolution), Simon Scarrow, Used; Very Good Book (#235838750147)
