Rezensionen

This is indeed an inspiring story of courage in adversity. I have a soft spot for Mary - and Jimmy. . . Also George. Gracie reminded me of my husband's Auntie Clare, a missionary and teacher, who went out to Africa to found a school, and when widowed came back to West Sussex and was headmistress of a village school. I couldn't stop reading this story . . . a real page turner Sheila Newberry
