Beschreibung
Fleeing the heavy bombing in Kent in 1940, Anthea Toft was eight years old when she arrived with her mother to live on a remote farm in deepest Shropshire. The contrast between her sheltered middle class life in the Home Counties, and that of the hard-working rural existence of the farming folk with whom she found herself, is vividly recorded in this remarkable account.A sensitive and nervous child, Anthea recalls with astonishing clarity the events that changed her young life at that time.A fascinating snap-shot of the farming communities and a lost way of rural life in Shropshire during the second world war.Anthea's account as a child-evacuee is interspersed with photographs and highlights from letters written between her parents at the time.
