Welcome to my
Website! If you enjoy WWII history on the home front and the secret
pleasure of reading someone's private letters, then I'm sure you will enjoy
reading my books. My first book, Letters from Lavender Cottage, was first
published in November 2002 and has been immensely successful. My second
book, Letters to Hannah, published 14th October 2003, looks at WWII on the

Letters to Hannah looks at WWII on the Home Front
through the eyes of those who lived in Hastings
and South East England, from September 1939 to December
1945. It also enlarges on the historical background
covered in its companion book, Letters from Lavender
Cottage.

Court
in the Act, which completes the trilogy, concentrates
on the work of the police force, the magistrates'
and other courts in WWII Hastings. As the effects
of war took hold, there was hardly any aspect of
home front life that was not controlled by some
Government Act, Regulation or Order, putting even
more pressure on already overworked police officers.

The
now famous occupant of Lavender Cottage, Emilie
Crane, returns, to let us back into her life and
the daily doings of her neighbours on the Ridge.
What was the truth about the supposed nudist colony
opposite Lavender Cottage? Was the guest house close
by really a haven for left wing agitators and a
bolt hole for the scandalous occultist, Aleister
Crowley?.

For
over half century Hastings has been host to
hundreds of thousands of young people from
all over the world. Host Families Wanted,
the true story of overseas English language
students in Hastings, is approached with the
enthusiasm for detail that my regular readers
expect of me.
If you are a host family, have been, or are
thinking of becoming one, this book is for
you.
