In the Morland Dynasty series, the majestic sweep of English history is richly and movingly portrayed through the fictional lives of the Morland family. It is 1898, and on the brink of a new century, the great stability of Victorian England is under threat. Europe is dividing into armed camps, while at home socialism and the suffragette movement challenge traditional values. At Morland Place, Teddy begins to restore the estate to its former glory, while his sister Henrietta’s family fill the house with life, and nephew Bertie finds a haven from the strictures of his own home. As Victoria’s reign draws to a close, war with the Boers becomes inevitable. Young men volunteer in droves, among them Henrietta’s beloved "extra son" Bertie. The Tommies march off singing, eager for a scrap; but what horrors will face them under the burning South African sun, and which of them will come marching home again?

From the Publisher
1898. As the 19th century draws to a close, Morland Place, the ancient Yorkshire home of the Morland family, faces a happier future. Teddy Morland, master of the house, begins to restore the family seat to its former glory, while his sister Henrietta and her family fill the house with life. And when Henrietta’s daughter Lizzie returns to give birth to her first child, it seems a symbol of renewal and hope. But on the brink of the new century, the great stability of Victorian England is under threat. The reverses and cruelties of the Boer War, followed by the unthinkable death of Queen Victoria shake the foundations of a confident nation. What changes will the accession of the gambling, cigar–smoking, automobile–loving King Edward bring? The next generation of Morlands are facing a new world, full of wonders—and questions. The author of 24 previous novels in the Morland Dynasty series, Cynthia Harrod–Eagles is also known for her highly praised Bill Slider mysteries.

Another great Morland Place book!,
This review is from: The Question (Morland Dynasty) (Paperback)
All the Morland Place books are great and this one is no exception. There are currently 29 books in this great family saga. The Question is one of these and they are best read in sequence. I highly recommend this series of books as they are great novels all the while telling the story of British history, particularly Royal history, from the 15th century through WWII. The characterization is fantastic. Highly recommended!
