"How much research went into this book I can't imagine - read it and you are THERE. The narrative whisks along at a cracking pace, and the characters are finely drawn, so that the reader identifies and sympathises with them. Not a single passage rings false; quite an achievement when writing in the past when conditions and indeed speech was so different to our contemporary experience. I look forward to Mr Rees's next work - he's quite a talent."
