Helpful Score: 3
I loved it, hence the five stars. I loved the perfect blending of English upper class morality with a romance between two senior citizens, and a couple of mild thrills when my hero, Major Pettigrew, has a go-round or two with snobbish, bigoted members of his social group. The genteel setting as well as the romantic clumsiness of Major Pettigrew with his Jane Austenish manners, are smile provoking. Anyone who likes a dose of the old fashioned English style of writing, and doesn't mind the occasional sniping at American crassness, will adore this book. I hated to have it end.
