Once upon a Wartime

By Edward Gordon

This is not a war story but one of ordinary people surviving the conditions on the home front during the 1939/1945 conflict. Hammered from on high, they knew little about the war raging about them. This is a robust but sensitive tale of the members of a young family whose lives are totally upturned by a tragic event of that war.
Although fictional the story is based upon real life events and will be recognizable to many who experienced the times

Edward Gordon

Edward Gordon is a retired civil engineer who has spent many years working and living in the Far east, the Indian sub-continent, and Africa. He has written two novels, so far, one of which was first published in 2006, the second 2008 . . . Neither not at all a commercial success it must be said. A third languishes in typescript awaiting inspiration. But in spite of the lack of success he remains committed to writing stories.
