One Child's War

During the blitz on London in 1941, a sailor on leave couldn't wait to get back to his ship. "At least there," he said, "you can fire back at an enemy, but poor bloody civilians just have to sit and take it." Throughout WW2, some 65,000 English civilians died from German bombing of one type or another. Twice that number were injured and thousands suffered psychological trauma. This book is a fictionalized account of the experiences of one young civilian and his family during that period.
