My Grandfather wrote about his life from his death bed. This is a beautiful story of one man's life. Ivor James was born into a poor Welsh mining town. The begining of the first world war ended his fathers miserable mining career and displaced the family to London. Barely surviving the war the family heads to Toronto, Canada to make a new start. Ivor meets the love of his life on that fateful crossing and so begins his Canadian story.
