This is the untold story of Liverpool's children in the Second
World War. Whilst everyone is familiar with the tales of evacuees
who were rushed out of the cities once the bombs started falling,
many of us are unaware that many stayed behind, either by choice or
necessity, as the city of their childhood disintegrated and burned
around them. In the words of those who experienced the Liverpool
Blitz first-hand, we hear of their adventures and misadventures,
the fun and games and ever-present danger, and the humor and sorrow
of those wartime years. This is an important and revealing look at
the war as seen through the eyes of these children. This book not
only explores the memories of a childhood ravaged by war, but also
the formative effect this had on individuals' lives. It reflects
the collective spirit of a city that refused to be crushed, even at
the darkest hours of the Luftwaffe's bombing campaign. Ideal for
anyone who lived through those times, or who is fascinated by
experiences and the legacy of the wartime generation, this new
title pays tribute to the war's forgotten children.
