Plot summary
Set in theReception
:''"As entertaining as Sarum and Rutherfurd's other sweeping novel of British history, London."'' —Boston Globe :''"The Forest is Michener told with an English accent."'' —St. Louis Post-Dispatch :''"As literature, Edward Rutherfurd's historical novels are not successful. They judder slowly along ill-made roads, like carts with square wheels, and the beauty of the scenery through which they pass does not entirely distract the passenger's mind from his aching bottom and tired eyes. As vehicles for delivering the fruits of research, however, they are not only efficient, but might truly be called works of art."'' - The IndependentPublication details
