Set between November 1938 and June 1940, Norman’s War is an adult novel which may be classed as a work of historical fiction. It pays tribute to the strength and resolve of the British person when confronted with war. More importantly, it pays tribute to the real life heroes of the Dunkirk evacuation, which took place in May/June 1940; people who risked their lives to rescue over 338,000 troops from the beaches of Dunkirk. This informative and well-researched novel will appeal to those who remember the events and to a younger generation who have never heard the story. It builds in intensity towards the final chapter and cuts incisively into the hearts and emotions of those who fight and those who wait.
