5.0�toiles sur 5 A very engrossing read!, Mars 9 2002

Par	June P. Spear (Auburn, ME USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: God is an Englishman (Paperback)

This book is a must read for any Anglophile. The story traces the development of a haulage firm that serves all of Enland and Wales and part of Scotland. While that is the major focus, the family life of the founder of "Swan on Wheels" is very much a part of it. In fact, all the characters involved are well presented with divergent and believable personalities.

Par	Chessy Brady (Connecticut) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: God is an Englishman (Paperback)

I am 15 and I loved God is an Englishman. Historical fiction is my favorite genre and the hours I spent on the 816 pages flew by. I found myself trying to finish my homework as early as possible so that I could get to the book before bed. It was also wonderful because it gave me so much to relate to in my Modern European History Class, where we are studying the same time period. I understand the events that we are learning about much more clearly because of Adam and Henrietta Swann. Everyone should read this book, I can't wait to read the other two!

3.0�toiles sur 5 wonderful details, but something seems to be missing, Janv. 22 2000

Par	Daniel Chaikin (Houston, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: God is an Englishman (Paperback)

This book has apparently stood the test of time. While I read it, I had no idea that it had been written 30 years ago. The historic details are magnificent, as is Delderfield's sense of English geography. The story is rather simple and predictable however. And the characters are too perfect. No character is this book is ever in danger of knowing failure, and to me, that detracts from their depth.
