Summary:

A powerful novel about three young women caught in the battles of their own times. In 1472, Jeanne's father arranges her marriage to a French lieutenant against her wishes. As armed forces threaten her beloved home, Jeanne risks all to rally the city's women in the fight of their lives. In 1797, unbeknownst to their father, feisty and brave Betsy, her brother and their best friend secretly join the rebel army, hoping to liberate Ireland from the tyrannical yoke of English rule. In 1960's Australia, country-girl Fiona desperately wants to fit in at university and joins the anti-Vietnam protest movement, despite her family's objections. When a friend is conscripted, Fiona's beliefs are challenged even further.
