And Then Came Spring John Hargrove Author

This book is complete and unabridged and as per its original format. Mr. Godwin Birtwhistle, wealthy, aging, respectable and sedate north of England manufacturer, well settled, comfortably married, his children grown, his business booming, went down to London on a business trip-purely for business, remember- but there he drank some brandies, and stepped out with the boys to some undress reviews, and began to feel chipper as a cold, and met a most alluring red-lipped lady, Leeta, a parson's daughter, a young war widow of expensive tastes, who was rather hard up against it, you know-a nice girl, but one such as do live in great cities-so spring came to Godwin Birtwhistle, and he soon began a regular weekly commuting between North England and London, between his good, beloved, happy family in the north and a certain Mayfair flat where he kept Leeta as his little friend. Heigho! A much enacted drama, this eternal youth-hunger of the aging heart. And John Hargrave sets it down with Sparkling humor, with vast understanding and compassion for both Godwin and Leeta, with a profound sense of the values of human life.
