In pretty good condition for its age with no inscriptions - pages starting to yellow. This is the story of three different races in one country. It is the story of men and woman of different colours whose destinies are caught up in the greatest destiny of the land, and in the fear, suspense and hatred which divides them. It is the story of South Africa. The two main characters are Douw Prins, the half-caste who wants to be free, and Thomas Muller, who manage to be white. Only a slight difference of pigmentation ensures that their futures and their children’s futures must diverge.

Subtitle: Richard Sharpe And The Invasion Of France, June To November Author: Bernard Cornwell Publisher: Collins () Edition: First Edition ISBN-10: X ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good Binding: Hardcover with dust jacket Pages: 301 Dimensions: 24 x 15.5 x 3 cm +++ by Bernard Cornwell (First Edition) +++ Major Sharpe’s men are in mortal danger - not from the French, but from the bureaucrats of Whitehall. Unless reinforcements can be brought from England, the regiment will be disbanded. Determined not to see his regiment die, Sharpe returns to England and uncovers a nest of high-ranking traitors, any of whom could utterly destroy his career with a word. Sharpe is forced into the most desperate gamble of his life – and not even the influence of the Prince Regent may be enough to save him.

The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales.
