Publisher's Synopsis
'A Fickle Wind' is a rags-to-riches story, chronicled initially through the eyes of a child born into war-torn Britain who refused to accept that the lacklustre life she knew would be all she could possibly expect. The escape route was via Canada, where the impossible seemed possible and her hopes were nourished and thrived. These were the transitional years, so different from the England into which she had been born, and preparing her for what was to come - a life well lived, in the miracle called America.
