Love, War and Ice Cream: Family Stories M. Z. Fairtlough

Love, War and Ice Cream paints a vivid portrait of two very different families, revealing their triumphs and tragedies, and the twists that ultimately bring them together. Harry's family members were overwhelmed by the enormous social changes that occurred after the Great War, and dismayed by the sudden disappearance of their way of life. Marina's people were resourceful, willing and able to work hard to better their lot. As war simmered, they emigrated from Italy to Spain, where they sold delicious ice cream. Then Harry met Marina. This engrossing saga blends the personal and the historical into an epic about love and duty, about family, and about growing up in different times.
