Synopsis

This is a true love story of the Great War inspired by a recently unearthed family collection of letters, written between 1915 and 1919 by Fred Allwood to his sweetheart Phyllis James. Written as historical fiction, the main characters and events are portrayed with great accuracy and Fred's letters, with their minutiae of detail, are woven into the story in their original form. These letters offer us incredible detail about the life led by a soldier for over 3 years on the Western Front. His words tell the story, not of the fighting and the dreadfulness of the conflict, but of the love, the doubts and the fears that must have confronted so many at this time. This is the second part of our family history and continues the family story started with "The Knowing of Thomas James" (published 2011- Xlibris) I hope that all branches of our family and any who choose to read these works might be inspired to seek the stories of their own forebears and to know themselves and their families that little bit better.
