Summary
'Always a stay-up-all-night read with Cynthia Harrod-Eagles! *****
'Fabulous series of books, this author never disappoints' *****
'I love Cynthia Harrold-Eagles' historical novels' *****
1919: The war is over, but peace is yet to come. As men are demobbed, women must give up positions that gave them freedom.
Edward is given an important job at the Peace Conference in Paris, but it means more lonely months away from Beattie and his hoped-for reconciliation. Fred's unit is sent to the Rhine, and Cook feels a
guilty relief that her uprooting has been postponed. Laura's friend Ransley volunteers for a further six months, and rather than go home, Laura finds a new outlet: conducting guided tours of the battlefields.
In England there are strikes and unrest, hardship and widespread unemployment, and everywhere the sight of the wounded to remind the nation of what it has paid for peace. But as the first, difficult year post-war comes to an end, there are great changes afoot for the Hunter household, wonderful surprises, and the promise of a new start.
Pack Up Your Troubles is the sixth and final book in the War at Home series by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, author of the much-loved Morland Dynasty novels. Set against the real events of 1919, at home and on the front, this concludes the vivid and rich family drama featuring the Hunter family and their servants.

She did it again!
I was weary in of starting this new series by Ms Harrod Eagles (as I was so in love wth her Morlan Dynasty series) but once I started it I was once again hooked.
This excellent author has a way of making you feel as if you are in the story as you feel more that you are seeing everything that is going on rather than just reading a story.
Another lovely touch was that Lady Overton and her son Oliver (from the Morland Dynasty series) were 'invited' to a wedding - that made me feel like I just met up with old friends.
May I add also that the narrator was very good too.
