Set against the threat of German invasion in WWII, this novel tells the story of a Sussex farmer refusing to leave his land. It presents a vivid picture of a quiet Downland village thrust into the front line by the fortunes of war. With delightful dustwrapper artwork by Cyril Stone. Extremely scarce, especially in this condition.
