As the Crow Flies
by Jeffrey Archer
Certainly one of my favourite and quite an underrated book!This is a historical fiction book that takes place in the 20th century. It follows the life of Charlie Trumper, The protagonist who is humble, simple, ambitious and a very hard working man.This story moves from his childhood with his grandfather from who he learns the basics of business and selling of Grocery. Then, one unfortunate day, his grandfather suddenly dies leaving Charlie the floundering business. With the help of Becky Salmon, an enterprising young woman, he sets out to make a name from himself as "The honest trader". But the brutal times of the World War I takes Charlie far from home and into the path of a dangerous enemy who's legacy of evil follows Charlie and his family for generations.This story shows us that if there is a will there is always a way, and we need to work hard to achieve our dreams and ambitions.
