Praise for A BOYHOOD IN WARTIME BRITAIN
"It is a very good account not only of civilian life in wartime Britain, but also of aspects of British society as seen by an young boy. ....intelligence, judgment and sense of humo(u)r come through." - WWII Reader
"In this beautiful and quietly harrowing memoir, ... Author Coles neatly balances scrupulous scholarship with a deeply personal perspective. This book is destined to take its place among the finest up-close accounts of life during World War II." - LAURENCE SHAMES
--------------------------------------------------------Collecting shrapnel from his front yard; identifying incoming bombers by their silhouettes; sleeping in the family bomb shelter - these were the everyday realities of a boyhood spent in the outskirts of London during the early 1940s. In this deeply personal and meticulously detailed account of growing up under the stresses, daily dangers and constant movement of unrestrained warfare, Michael Coles offers us a compelling portrait of the inspiring resilience of childhood.
