In Pontypridd and the Rhondda in 1905, coal is king and the families who sunk the first collieries are rich. None is wealthier or more generous a benefactor than Harry Watkin Jones. His daughter Sali is about to marry her childhood sweetheart, but tragedy follows tragedy, and four years later Sali is a penniless outcast, fleeing from a violent husband and struggling to support herself and her son in a difficult world. Sali finds work in the home of family of colliers, and here she and her son find the warmth and love missing from their lives for so long. But unrest and violence have come to the valleys. Caught up in the conflict, Sali finds herself denying her roots, her class, and even sacrificing her son's future, for the sake of the people she loves and the cause they are prepared to die for.

Evaluate Regarding Books Beggars and Choosers (Long Road to Baghdad #3)

I loved this book - it introduced me to Collier's books and I went on read the entire series. It is easy to fall in love with and genuinely care about what happens to the characters - definitely - A Keeper, to be read over and over.

What's with this people in this book? Apart from disfungsional family tree, some asshole of a husband who want to marry up his baby mama aka his dead boss pregnant widow right after her wife kick him out. Some nasty lady, confused and angry, sleep with the one that got away right after her ex fiance beat the guy up. I always thought that calling a lady an asshole is rude. But this lady is right to be called one. Great book actualy, for when you want to feel some risks.

this is a great series...

I read this book without having read the series and still really enjoyed it. I found it a little slow to start but was hooked after the first few chapters! The author takes you on an emotional journey as the main character is on a quest to find out more information about her family after they have been affected by the war. The characters are easy to relate to and the author describes the surroundings beautifully, so you can really imagine the pictures in your mind.

Christmas Eve in the Workhouse is a short story set in a workhouse in Pontypridd in the 1930s.This is a touching story about a close-knit community around Christmas time. I strongly recommend reading the Author's Note at the end too.

You know how people who aren't bookworms try to be when they know you are? Years ago, I had a friend like that. And for my birthday around 5 years ago, she got me this book. It looked pretty average. You could tell she'd just grabbed it off the shelf randomly. But it felt rude to throw it away when I hadn't even read it! So this year, I thought "I better read this. What if it's great?"She didn't know what she was doing. It was terrible. It was one of those books where they assume you know
