About the book
Towards the Changing Tides
Victory brings celebration, but peace does not return life to the way it was. From 1919, the Cooper family enters an unsettled Britain shaped by loss, economic pressure, political change and new social freedoms. Old certainties weaken while younger generations begin to imagine futures that would once have seemed impossible.
Towards the Changing Tides follows the family across the inter-war years to 1936, connecting personal choices with the larger changes taking place around them. Work, love, responsibility and ambition pull family members in different directions as London rebuilds and the country searches for stability. The result is a warm, involving historical saga about adapting after upheaval, protecting those who matter and discovering that progress rarely travels in a straight line. Readers can continue the Coopers’ journey while also experiencing the mood and pressures of Britain between two wars.
