On the outside the Avenue appeared so peaceful but this is a story of turbulent change, of boom and bust, mass unemployment, new freedoms and restrictions, the Blackshirts, and jazz.
Ronald Frederick Delderfield byl populární anglický romanopisec a dramatik. Mnohá jeho díla byla adaptována pro televizi a jsou stále široce čtena. Jeho historické romány a série často sledují mladé muže vracející se z války a jejich životy v Anglii, což autorovi umožňuje vykreslit široký záběr anglické historie a hluboce se ponořit do sociálních dějin od edwardiánské éry do počátku 60. let.
