Across the Rift

The story concerns the lives of members of a family living in three locations during World War Two: Britain, Nazi-occupied Austria and Southern Rhodesia in Africa. It follows the British members through to the euphoria of VE Day, the Austrian members through to the Allied bombing of Vienna, and African members caught between the winner's euphoria and the loser's humiliation. Despite the dark times, humour, love and redemption feature in equal measure. (Softcover - 475 pages - 21 x 14 cm)
