Publisher's Synopsis
This book is for anyone who has an interest in what life was like living in the Great Depression of the thirties and also gives the reader a birds-eye view from a personal perspective, of what life was like living in the Blitz. We felt the full force of Hitler's wrath, for he bombed the east end of London for 57 nights. I witnessed the worst and the best of humanity at a very young age. This book would also be of interest to the scholar of history and the student alike. It is also a tribute to the Cockney Spirit, that reigned supreme, and could not be squashed by the exploitation of the wealthy or by Mr. Hitler.
