The Rose Of Sebastopol by Katharine Mcmahon
The Ukraine, Russia and the Crimea are taking centre stage in the world today but this spellbinding story of courage and love (by Katharine McMahon, author of Season of Light) takes us back to the original Crimean war. Like Philippa Gregory and Bernard Cornwell, the author has woven a stunning story into a backdrop of historical fact that both teaches and entertains.
