This is a collation of memories in their own words by people who lived through the privations of the Second World War. Unfortunately this made very difficult reading as some of the segments were very short and not well written. The idea of collecting this data is very important and should not be forgotten! However the content could have been strung together in a more readable manner by the author who must have spent a great deal of time researching this book.
I wanted to like it but I struggled to continue reading.
I am sure this book will appeal to the older audience who lived through those terrible times but I am not sure that the young, who need to know about sharing, pulling together and not getting everything they want, will even pick it up and look at the synopsis.
