Apples and Andersons

More about the book

Rationing, air raids, Anderson shelters, evacuees, make do and mend . . . This is Anne Hathaway's account of her childhood in wartime Oxford. Only six years old when the Second World War began, Anne grew up in a large family, and her story relates how the war had an impact on them all, as well as the family- like community of which they were a part.
