Open Book interviews Toronto lawyer, Lynne Golding, in an article on her wartime novel The Beleaguered.
In August 1914, Great Britain declared war on Germany and the First World War began. That fateful day also kicks off The Beleaguered (Blue Moon Publishers) by Lynne Golding, the second book in Golding's Beneath the Alders series, which follows several families in early 20th century Brampton, Ontario through the tumultuous events of the pre-war and wartime era.
