Master Georgie

Vision six photogrpahs in front of you, from a certain time, say Enlgand in the mid 19th century. Vision a story woven arund these photographs and you have Master Georgie by Beryl Bainbridge. It is a lovely story, one of the best I have read in a long time. It weaves its way slowly from England, across the sea to Galipoli, Scutari and ends outside Sebastopol in the midst of the Crimean War.
The book is short and can be easily finished in a day or two, so if you don't have the time to start that thick heavy book, pick up Master Georgie instead. Enjoy!
