Can a young war correspondent find herself and follow her heart? In this work of historical fiction, 20-something Annabella “Annie” March arrives in France in 1944 intending to write about the war. Soon, however, Annie begins to distance herself from her sometimes-mentor, sometimes-rival - the great Martha Gellhorn - and Gellhorn’s larger-than-life husband, the novelist Ernest Hemingway. She turns to photography in the hopes of making her own name and, to her delight, discovers that images come more easily than words.

Good bittersweet romance about wwIi
Reviewed: 12-31-19
Excellent descriptions of the battle of the bulge and people's reaction to watching combat. Female narrator (good) mis understood or mispronounced some words the might irritate history freaks. e. g. It's R. A. F. not "Raf" (Royal Air Force)

Story4 out of 5 stars 38
During Egypt's Second Intermediate Period, a mysterious foreign group of people, known as the Hyksos, conquered Egypt and established the 15th and 16th Dynasties some time shortly after 1700 BCE. For centuries, the Hyksos rule over Egypt was an enigma shrouded in half-truths and myth.

This is more about what the Hyksos is not, this what it is.
