About the Author:
Ruth Elwin Harris has lived abroad at different times during her life. She spent three years in the USA before her marriage, working in jobs as diverse as secretary, sailing instructor and stage manager for a theatre company, and at one time helped out at an orphanage in India run by Mother Theresa's nuns. Ruth has written many stories for magazines and radio and is the author of Billie: The Nevill Letters, 1914-1916, a moving collection of World War I letters that she came across in the Imperial War Museum while researching the background for The Dividing Sea. Ruth now lives with her family in North Yorkshire.
Review:
"An absorbing family drama - "the Little Women of our times." * "The family relationships are convincingly portrayed with considerable insight. Her descriptions of the countryside, flowers and scenery and of emotions are vivid, but her real strengths lie in characterisation." School Librarian. * "The Little Women of our times." The Times * "A family saga to enthral." The Times Literary Supplement * "Vivid... Memorable." The Guardian
