Description
A WOMAN OF HER TIME
Stella grew to womanhood in a land torn apart by the Boer War, but the thunder and flash of guns on the distant horizon did not trouble her until her sixteenth year. To the battle-hardened British troops the fire at the farm was just another brutal act of war: to Stella it was a blazing beacon burning her past to ashes and lighting the way to a strange new life in distant lands...
Who would not pity a wounded soldier dying in the parched veldt far from his English home? How could Stella fail to nurse the pale, aristocratic Rupert Coryot back to health- to give him her love unreservedly? And how could she suspect that his summer passion for her, a humble Boer's daughter, would change in the colder climate of his ancestral home?
