A favourite British author

Rosemary Sutcliff has to be one of my favourite authors because as a young teen I devoured all her books I could find in our local library. She has written historical novels that are set in various eras, here are the British titles in case they help you with the era you are studying. Some of the titles are hard to find but it is worth keeping a list of the books you'd like in your purse in case you stumble upon a fabulous second-hand bookshop somewhere!
