THE OAKEN HEART was launched on Thursday March 3rd 2011 at the opening ceremony of the Essex Book Festival. Ronald Blythe finds the book "astonishing". Read his Foreword now - and a marvellous appreciation by Simon Heffer in the Sunday Telegraph.
Simon Shaw calls our new edition 'splendid' (see Allingham journal page)
The Oaken Heart was written during the Battle of Britain and the Blitz period in 1940 / 41. It is Allingham's only published work of non-fiction and represents an intensely personal and honest attempt to record the extraordinary events through which she and her Tolleshunt D'Arcy neighbours were living. The Oaken Heart was living history when it was written but, now that it is 70 years old, we thought some notes and photographs might help. We're grateful for the tremendous support and assistance received from people in the Tolleshunt D'Arcy area. Read Neil D'Arcy Jones
