This book was originally published in 1941. In September 1939, the
family life of large numbers of parents and children in England and
Scotland was voluntarily broken up; 750,000 school children,
542,000 mothers with young children, 12,000 expectant mothers, and
77,000 other persons left their homes and agreed to go wherever
they were sent, in small country towns and rural areas. Yet no
sooner was the great migration accomplished than its reversal
began. Mothers and children began to trickle back to the industrial
centres from every district. The Cambridge Evacuation Survey arose
from a discussion, in October 1939, among child psychologists and
social workers, many of whom had taken part in the actual
evacuation, or were engaged in some form of practical work among
children, who felt that a detailed study of what was happening in
one area might bring out causal sequences which would become
blurred and lost in a larger and more comprehensive study. This
volume collates and analyses the information taken from the survey,
including chapters on what the children say, children and foster
parents, and children's recreation in Cambridge.
