  • Great review for Susan Ottaway

    14 Jul 2014

    ‘Ottaway is a gifted storyteller, rarely losing momentum and skillfully weaving family strife, SOE bureaucratic problems and on-the-ground Resistance work into a cohesive narrative. She draws attention to issues within the SOE administration but also goes to great lengths to show how their agents fought tirelessly for the cause. The author does not provide much background on the war, leaving some readers out of the loop on certain points, but even this snag won’t lessen enjoyment of the book. A compelling story sure to please history buffs and novices alike.’

  • The Race to Truth selected as 'Best Summer Read'

    14 Jul 2014

    Emma O’Reilly’s memoir The Race to Truth has been selected by the Daily Herald as one of the Best Summer Reads of 2014.

    ‘O’Reilly may be a woman who knows where the bodies are buried, but intriguingly this compelling memoir doesn’t appear motivated by revenge or vindication - although no one could fault her had she chosen to pursue that avenue. Rather it is an attempt to help salve and heal the damaged reputation of the sport she loves. It’s worth checking out for the foreword by Armstrong himself in which he comes as close to being genuinely humbled as I’ve heard him.’
