    Lone Star Book Blog Tour: Wickwythe Hall by Judithe Little

    Why yes, it’s another book blog tour, and one my little historical-fiction-loving heart is a pitter-patter over: Wickwythe Hall, by Judithe Little.  Set primarily in 1940 England as Hitler invades France, it presents a view of the war from the perspective of the moneyed – one I’m not as familiar with – as well as a bit of English military history that I was both unfamiliar with and left speechless by. Does that pique your interest? Read on for more (and check out the giveaway!)
