Who Is Mary Smith?

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

What's in a name? Maria McCliver of Irish descent changes her name to Mary Smith to advance in her chosen profession. She is a resident of Weingarten in the Barossa Valley, residing alongside the Schultz family, descendants of German pioneers. An argument between them five generations back sparked a dispute whose fires still fume. Mary has never met them until she encounters Benjamin Schultz, and a love affair between them blossoms. Weingarten is an exclusive community, mostly Lutheran with just a few Roman Catholics; therefore, a wedding between the couple meets vigorous opposition. Grip your heartstrings as you tread the cactus-path of young love, and try to predict, without peeping, how the warlords sheath their swords, shake hands and a joyful marriage is celebrated.

Autorenporträt

Brian's writing style developed from a childhood bookworm addiction and a fascination with personalities. People accused him of being 'quiet', whereas he was studying them and analysing their characters. Added to this peculiarity is a retentive memory and an urge to write and you have the basics of an author. Born in Western Australia during WWII, always observant, a soldier at twenty and well-travelled, he maintained his interest in personalities and began to write after retiring from the Public Service. His other interests are history and nature photography.
