It's unusual for a book to deal with such diverse subjects as hunting and flying in such depth and with such clarity. It's subtly educational but treads that delicate line between being patronising and shoe-horning in every bit of research with ease. Targeted at the ten plus age group it's a very good introduction to how the country was before the Great War. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
The teen who loves horses will enjoy [[The Dark Horse by Rumer Godden]], set in the nineteen -thirties but for more about the first World War , we can recommend [[Stories of World War One by Tony Bradman]]. ''Flambards'' is decidedly better than [[Wentworth Hall by Abby Grahame]].
