This remarkable family saga and love story has embedded itself into my psyche...
Set in the East End of London between two wars, it is beautifully detailed and will last long in the memory.

... while some of the thoughts and actions are fictitious, there is a strong element of reality present throughout. That and the integrity of the main characters make 21 ALDGATE, a standout.

I love the waymemories of WW2 myself, I did grow up in the dismal aftermath of rationing and deprivation and like most of my generation, have a deep regard and respect for all those who took part.
History can come alive when viewed through the eyes of people who experience it. Patricia Friedberg's books are proof of this, helping readers to relive the past and, hopefully, learn from it.
Jackie Minnitti The Island Reporter, St. Petersburg, Fl
I love the way Patricia Friedberg tells the story - so straightforward, no frills or fancy prose. Speaking as a War Baby (born 1943) although II have no direct memories of WWII myself, I did grow up in the dismal aftermath of rationing and deprivation and like most of my generation, have a deep regard and respect for all those who took part.
