"Harding's epic work of historical fiction. . .incredibly detailed. . .Harding brings the Italian characters to life with vivid descriptions, flowing prose, and witty dialogue. . .A well-researched novel of one man’s war and redemption."
Kirkus Reviews
In Three Women and the River, WILLIAM HARRY HARDING has given us a novel as exciting and well written as it is impeccably researched.
It’s as outstanding in its depiction of trench warfare as it is dealing with the loves and losses of its protagonist, Reg.
From a farm run by a crotchety father in a small village in England, through war, im-prisonment and the threat of execution, he finds his real life in rural Italy with the woman he loves on the river that almost drowned him.
"Fascinating, gripping, beautifully written and heart wrenching. I just love this book." ̶ Maria Mazziotti Gillan (American Book Award winner)
