The Price of Freedom

Author : PaulE

Genre : Historical

Review Extract from Review By: catherinedarcy

"Powerful Stuff PaulE

I really enjoyed reading this piece of work. I was completely absorbed right from the beginning. I would probably not have chosen this for myself as i'm not really into stories of battles and war and conflict, but I am so pleased that I was given the opportunity to read it. It is so well written I could picture myself right there in that house with Richard and his poor wife. The loss of the baby, Anne's pain, the anger of the mob and also their fear was so well described. I would really like to know what happens next.

Synopsis
Based on actual events - Thousands of people gathered in Bristol in October 1831 demanding the vote. In the few days of bloody mayhem that followed, 250 of them died. The futures of some of those who survived became inextricably linked for years to come. They would all discover that freedom comes at a price.

This is now called "Chimes of Freedom" - the last version.
I've spent too long obsessing over the opening chapters, and it's time to get on with writing the book.
