History's Pages

The Knocknashee Story, Book 3

De: Jean Grainger

Narrado por: Caroline Lennon

In 1940, an unlikely friendship bridges the Atlantic. Twenty-year-old Grace Fitzgerald lives in the seemingly peaceful Irish village of Knocknashee, exchanging letters with Richard Lewis, an American war correspondent stationed in London, as World War II engulfs Europe.

From their distinct vantage points, Grace and Richard bear witness to a world in turmoil. In Knocknashee, where the conflict is carefully termed "the Emergency," the tight-knit community's unease grows as Ireland's proclaimed neutrality reveals dangerous cracks. Grace soon discovers that threats lurk not just beyond the nation's borders, but within them, forcing her to confront a devastating choice.

Meanwhile in bomb-scarred London, Richard's dispatches to American readers capture both the brutal reality of war and the indomitable spirit of Londoners. His journalistic instincts lead him deep into a network of resistance and courage, where he finds himself challenging humanity's darkest regime.

History's Pages, the compelling third book of the Knocknashee Story, weaves a tale of friendship tested by personal choices and the relentless tide of war. Perfect for those who loved "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" and "The Nightingale," this novel explores how ordinary people rise to extraordinary circumstances, and how the deepest bonds transcend all boundaries.

Poor Audio editing

I have really enjoyed this story and the previous ones. Unfortunately, the audio editing with story was very distracting. please go back and fix it! There were multiple times they inserted a segment and it was very noticeable - the difference in sound quality really underscored what they were doing. My low performance score has nothing to do with the performer herself (unless she did the editing).

The whole story is enchanting! Rich! A fabulous read!

Richly developed characters. Wonderful setting and culture. Makes me long to be in Ireland!
Third in the series. Loved it every bit as much as the first two. Will start the fourth now.

My favorite series ever

Great storyline. Happy and funny! I can’t wait to finish the series but I don’t want it to end either!

Absolutely loving this series

Heartwarming story. Love the characters and the authentic reading. Looking forward to reading all seven books of this series.

what always amazes me about this author is that she manages to be surprising and refreshing.

I have read EVERY SINGLE thing that I am aware of this person publishing- and I can't wait for more-she deals with the hardest parts of life with such tenderness and class. I have also learned so much from her books about Ireland's history and traditions. if you're looking to enjoy a good story- look no farther.
