More about the book

When war came to Southampton, no-one expected it to be like this - least of all the Corbetts. Their home a ruin without gas, electricity or water, no milk for the baby, thypoid and cholera a daily threat, and bombs from the sky a nightly terror. In a desparate attempt to save their children, Joan and Peter begin a heart-stirring journye that exchanges the dangers on land for the darkness and waste of the sea.... Written in 1938, this moving and dramatic novel of simple heroism shows a master storyteller and modern prophet at his irresistible best.
