Format:Paperback
I read this book when I was about 17 years old (I'm 24 now)I found that it taught me about what it was like in a different world to my own. With the romantic story, as well as the historical account of Italy at the time of the 2nd World War, it had me enthralled.
The first book that I read by Noel Barber, was Farewell to France which I think was his best. I have read it 3 times and it remains one of my favourite books of all time.
If you want a really good read,but with an historical outlook, then all of his books are a must. You'll probably laugh and you'll definatly cry. (Well I did)

One of the best writers of this genre? Definitely!
I have read all of his books and, as the heading says, they are ALL excellent.He gives you romance, actual factual detail and adventure, all rolled into one!
This one is so descriptive of Italy and the way that the 'ordinary' people of Italy felt during the reign of Mussolini and his cohorts that it makes you feel that you are actually there taking part in their misery and sometimes, laughter.
If you have never read any of Barber's books this would be a good place to start. I guarantee you'll want to read all of them.

very well-written book
9 Sep 1999
Format:Hardcover
Its a shame that its out of print , and a shame for his other books, too... He combines real facts and historical events with a love story and I find that very interesting and educational at the same time... I enjoyed this thoroughly and also "The Woman of Cairo" was excellent...
