For the past seven years, since their exile from their Tirol home, the girls of the Chalet School have striven with might and main to support the war effort, never losing faith that some day peace will come, and reunite them with their lost friends in the occupied countries. Now, with the end of the war fast approaching, the Chalet School prepares to take a full part in the victory festivities, inviting Old Girls and new friends to join them in celebrating the defeat of Naziism.
In the midst of all the excitement, school must go on-there are lessons to learn, Guide badges to be earned, form gardens to tend, and, Middles being Middles, a goodly number of pranks and escapades! Coincidentally, the Sale falls in the summer term this year, and the School determines to raise a record amount for the Sanatorium. Can they outdo their previous efforts, and truly make this a term to remember?
As with the previous Chalet fill-in titles published by Girls Gone By, Peace Comes to the Chalet School is a title which Elinor could have written, even though she didn't.
The book has a full colour cover, and a full colour frontispiece, both of which have been created especially for the title by Peter Jolly.
Our other fill-in titles sold out very quickly, and are now commanding high prices on the second-hand market.
Reviews
- I have read this through twice now and both times I have forgotten it
was not written by EBD. I look forward to more by Katherine Bruce. An
absorbing book in its own right and as a 'filler' is unequalled. - Shirley Sim
