PUBLISHED by CUSTOM BOOK PUBLICATIONS... .... The ashes of the First World War are barely cool. The new regime of USSR is placed under the steel discipline of Stalin. After the short golden age of the Charleston, the industrial world faces its first real hurdle as economies are shaken by the market crashs of the great depression. In Germany a new leader energises the nation, pulling the country out of depression with the iron fist of the dictator. War envelopes the world. Countries of middle Europe are invaded and annexed. After, with an uneasy peace in place, borders are changed and mixed to create countries with new, unheard of names. Old cultures, religions and ideologies are forced to blend into a new unity, hating the moves - the repercussions will be felt for decades, continuing to haunt the nations responsible... A tale of survival... after losing everything, leaving everyting behind, what is left are the truly civilised, profoundly human values the author carried within her when all outward accoutrements have been destroyed.
