Cronin thinks this book was probably his best work!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Crusaders Tomb (Hardcover)
Crusader's Tomb is a wonderful book about Stephen Desmonde who turned his back on everything, to do what he loved best, painting. A fine book from start to finish.

One of the greatest works of fiction,
By A Customer
This review is from: Crusaders Tomb (Hardcover)
I sincerely believe this book to be one of the greatest works of fiction. Incredible book this and I have read it many times over. In contrast to Maugham's callous hero in the "Moon and Sixpence", Paul Desmond is the normal likable chap. The book provides a psychological window into his mind - his fears, his idealism, his weaknesses and his passion to paint. Though he meets with much opposition in pursuit of his passion, ultimately his talent prevails and he triumphs - even while he is alive.

This review is from: Crusader's Tomb
The Crusaders Tomb was also titled A Thing of Beauty and is one of my favourite books.The book arrived in good time although the packaging was in shreds. Luckily the book was unharmed. Thank you for your prompt service.
