Cowgill Family, Book 1

De: Bill Kitson

Narrado por: Nathaniel Priestley

Yorkshire, 1878. Young, ambitious and in love, Albert Cowgill’s life is finally beginning in earnest. At just 23, he has already been made partner at Haigh, Ackroyd & Cowgill – the best wool business in the city. He’s also just laid eyes on the prettiest girl he ever saw, Hannah Ackroyd.

Romance soon blossoms for Albert and Hannah, and they marry and set up home in Scarborough. But before long, clouds gather over Number 1, Byland Crescent. Within a year, Albert’s family begins to disintegrate. His youngest daughter contracts consumption. His eldest son runs off with the housemaid.

As Europe teeters on the brink of war, Albert’s hopes for his youngest son – and his business – are dashed. Conflict will irrevocably change the Cowgill family’s way of life...

Insufferable

I had not listened to such cliche story in a long long time. Put me to sleep, so formula based and devoid of anything really interesting.
