Available on August 1, on Kindle. Soft cover book to follow.
In 1938, high-spirited Helen McPhail sails the SS Normandie to a Europe fraught with signs of change due to Adolph Hitler’s increasing demands for land and power. Thirty years old and single, she extracts every ounce of pleasure out of visiting nine countries by rail, including nightclubs in Paris, and a dogsled ride in Switzerland.
Though every step of the trip is carefully planned out, many things do not happen as expected. She becomes entangled in circumstances that are fascinating, frustrating, and romantic. (Listening to Hungarian music can be treacherous!)
As Helen joyfully hops from country to country, she leaves more than one man longing for her to stay. Join Helen on the streets of Paris, where she joins the throngs of people who are frantically trying to get out of Europe. She is an eye-witness to a Paris where taxi cabs and drivers are being commandeered to military service, as France prepares for war on the eve of the Munich Conference. Why is the RMS Queen Mary distanced off shore, instead of waiting at the dock? Jump into an adventure you will not soon forget! Readers of this book come away feeling like they were right there with her.
Great news! This amazing true story is now available as a soft cover on Amazon.com for just $9.99. The Kindle version is just $2.99. What a fun/historic/fascinating read! Buy one for your friends/relatives who are history buffs! They will learn new facts and thank you for it!
