Описание: Set in World War II-era Hollywood, New York Times-bestselling author Gwen Bristow's emotional tour de force about a woman haunted by the ghost of her husband who died in World War I For two decades, Elizabeth Herlong has been a devoted Hollywood wife, watching as her husband Spratt built an empire in the budding motion picture industry. But part of her still yearns for her first husband, who perished in France during World War I. As a second great war rages in Europe, something happens that will draw Elizabeth back to the old days, awakening feelings and longings that she thought she would never experience again. One night, Spratt introduces her to a German screenwriter, a crippled veteran of the last war attempting to make a new life for himself. Something in his face stirs Elizabeth's heart, setting her on a journey of discovery about the meaning of true love and the things that war cannot destroy. Tomorrow Is Forever was made into a film starring Claudette Colbert, Orson Welles, and Natalie Wood in 1946. "A superior kind of tale." -TheNew York Times Gwen Bristow (1903-1980), the author of seven bestselling historical novels that bring to life momentous events in American history, such as the siege of Charleston during the American Revolution (Celia Garth) and the great California gold rush (Calico Palace), was born in South Carolina, where the Bristow family had settled in the seventeenth century. After graduating from Judson College in Alabama and attending the Columbia School of Journalism, Bristow worked as a reporter for New Orleans' Times-Picayune from 1925 to 1934. Through her husband, screenwriter Bruce Manning, she developed an interest in longer forms of writing-novels and screenplays. After Bristow moved to Hollywood, her literary career took off with the publication of Deep Summer, the first novel in a trilogy of Louisiana-set historical novels, which also includes The Handsome Road and This Side of Glory. Bristow continued to write about the American South and explored the settling of the American West in her bestselling novels Jubilee Trail, which was made into a film in 1954, and in her only work of nonfiction, Golden Dreams. Her novel Tomorrow Is Forever also became a film, starring Claudette Colbert, Orson Welles, and Natalie Wood, in 1946.

Описание: History tells the story of the massive slaughter of Highland men at the Battle of Culloden; however, very few histories tell of the battle's aftermath. Known as The Clearances, there is no other event in all of Scotland's history that can compare to the "ethnic cleansing" of the Highlands of Scotland which began shortly after the battle took place. The men, women, and children were told they had to leave their homeland, without belongings, money, or dignity. The King of England now had ownership of lands which once belonged to clan chieftains. The Highlanders left Scotland for countries which were foreign to them: Canada's Nova Scotia, Australia, New Zealand, and America. They brought with them the Gaelic language of the Highlands and the sadness of people who had been disowned by the English government. In the high glens of Scotland, away from English eyes and ears, surviving families gathered together. The food they shared was sparse: bannock buns, oatcakes, and a small cup of malted barley whisky. They tapped their toes and clapped their hands as a piper played forbidden tunes on the bagpipes. They knew they had to leave their beloved homeland, but for this last time, they were together. They bowed their heads, giving thanks for their lives, the food they shared, and the kinship of one another. The Clearances were shameful, hidden, not written about, and not spoken of. Tragedy of the Blood tells the stories handed down from one generation to the next. It is time for the stories to be told so that others will know of the "ethnic cleansing of Scotland" and the true meaning of those words.
