I am trying to find a sci=fi/fantasy book from a vague plot description. The plot concerned a group of people who went on a day trip to an old ampitheatre. Once there they meet up with a coach party and they are all seated in the theatre which is open air and it moves.
When they get over their shock they realise that they have travelled a few moments back in time. The ampitheatre keeps moving and they keep travelling further back in time. Each time the theatre comes to a standstill it has shifted in space as well as time and thus there are several casualties/amputees who have the misfortune to get caught in the moving theatre mid cycle.
The book culminates in a battle at the end of the book between those seasoned time travellers who have been moving for many years and the new arrivals. I have no idea what this was called, who the author is or when it was written but I think it may have been set in the UK. Can anyone help?

You are looking for 'The Fall' The Fall was written by Simon Clark and was published in 1998. A brief synopsis from Simon Clark's website: The past is a different country. They do things differently there.In a summer meadow, time has begun to run backwards.
Along with the soil, grasses and insects that lie within its boundaries, more than fifty accidental time travellers are transported into the past – men and women who were innocently visiting an ancient amphitheatre that lies at the heart of this mysterious site. Now TV director Sam Baker finds himself on the strangest journey of his life. Forces beyond comprehension drive him, at first, back a few moments.
Then days. Then years... He and his fellow travellers must learn to survive in a world that is becoming increasingly alien.'Seventies skinheads are a menace. Fashion's a nightmare.
Credit cards won't buy a meal in the 'forties. Driving a modern-day car along Victorian roads packed with horse-drawn vehicles is the mother and father of all white-knuckle rides. On this retro-journey lurks hidden danger.
Sam Baker and his companions aren't the only castaways in time. There are those who watch the world of yesteryear with envious eyes and plan their attack on the unsuspecting, undefended citizens of nearby Casterton. A town that for Sam Baker will become his Alamo.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
