Post of Honour: The classic saga of life in post-war Britain: A Horseman Riding By
Autor R. F. Delderfielden Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 mai 2007
A generation fallen.
A country that will never be the same again.
Nowhere in England avoids the searing loss of young men during the First World War and the remote Devon village of Shallowford is no exception. Many never return and the lives of those who do come back are changed forever.
Paul Craddock must try to rebuild the estate and, with more difficulty, the bonds broken between the people who belong there. It is a time of huge social change and there are challenges in peace as hard to surmount as those of war. And before they are met, Germany once again threatens the stability of Europe and a way of life so hard won.

Recenzii
Mr Delderfield's manner is easy, modest, heartwarming
R F Delderfield is a born storyteller
Sheer, wonderful storytelling
It is always a pleasure to read R F Delderfield, because he never seems to be ashamed of writing well
Highly recommended. Combines tension with a splendid sense of atmosphere and vivid characterisation. An excellent read
He built an imposing artistic social history that promises to join those of his great forebears in the long, noble line of the English novel. His narratives belong in a tradition that goes back to John Galsworthy and Arnold Bennett

Notă biografică
R. F. Delderfield (1912-1972) was born in South London. On leaving school he joined the Exmouth Chronicle newspaper as a junior reporter and went on to become editor. He began to write stage plays and then became a highly successful novelist, renowned for brilliantly portraying slices of English life. With the publication of his first saga, A Horseman Riding By, he became one of Britain's most popular authors, and his novels have been bestsellers ever since. Many of his works, including the Horseman Riding By series, To Serve Them All My Days, the Avenue novels, and Diana, were adapted for television.
