In this touching and poignant memoir about his childhood years during WWII, award-winning author John J. Fulford recalls the hardships of the war years and their effects on his sprawling family. From Spain to London, then to multiple cities and towns in England, then to British Guiana, and other places, they are repeatedly forced to move for their safety. Along the way, Fulford recounts the amazing events they experienced, as seen through the eyes of a child, starting with his recollection of the "Doodlebug" V1 rockets that bombarded London. Sea voyages, the Home Guard, steam trains, pollution, air-raid shelters, spies, gas masks, various foods, all are vividly described with a sense of marvel. A beautiful, lovingly written memoir about a time that changed the course of civilization.
