Betrayed Spring: A Novel Of The British Way is a novel written by Jack Lindsay and published by Australasian Book Society in 1953. This novel is a large-scale picture of post-war England. Throughout, the emphasis is on people: a young girl in London, a demobilized soldier wondering whether to return to the Lancashire coal-mines, a Bradford mill-owner's son, a Tyneside trades union official- these are the main characters, vividly described against the background and time in which they live. It is a story of individual struggle and development, rich with the tumult of life and the varied backgrounds of Tyne-side engineering, Yorkshire textile mills, Lancashire coal-mining, and the London of the Docks. This is undoubtedly Jack Lindsay's finest contemporary novel. Ex- Library - sticker is affixed to front pastedown. Condition: Good with some tanning and foxing. Dust jacket: Fine a few silverfish damage on DJ. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.
