One of my all time favorite historical fiction books!!! No need to decide which time period you’d like to read this time as it covers one place from prehistory to the 20th century. It is very long, but when it’s a good book, you don’t…

This book takes you on a magical journey through time. Rutherfurd's novels are so well researched, it's like a fascinating history class! If you like Sarum, you'll love London as well.
