This is a true story. What is the ultimate price of success? In
1924, swimming superstar Hilda James was a dead cert for the
British Team at the Paris Olympics. Her family had other ideas.
This is the account of a World Champion who suddenly found that her
ultimate challenge was to pull her life back together after her
dream was cruelly shattered forever. Hilda wasn't about to bow down
to anybody and broke away, finally achieving full emancipation. A
social history of life in South Liverpool plus the story of
Parkgate Baths on The Wirral provide the early background for this
extraordinary book. The final chapters are set against the backdrop
of life as a celebrity crewmember aboard Cunard's first purpose
built cruise liner, Carinthia.
