| Publisher Description: "William" is a 1925 novel written by E. H. Young. Set in post-WWI England, it is the story of a father and his efforts to care for and aid his children throughout their lives. A charming tale of family togetherness in the face of adversity, "William" would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf and constitutes a must-read for fans of Young's work. Emily Hilda Daniell (1880-1949) was an English children's writer, novelist, mountaineer, and advocate for female suffrage who wrote under the pen name E. H. Young. Despite being almost completely unheard of now, Daniell was a celebrated author who produced numerous best sellers during her time. Other works by this author include: "Corn of Wheat" (1910), "A Bridge Dividing" (1922), and "Moor Fires" (1916). Read & Co. Books is republishing this classic novel now in a new edition complete with a new specially-commissioned biography of the author. |
