More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Published in association with the Imperial War Museum, this wonderful series uses primary source evidence such as diaries, posters, newspapers cuttings and oral accounts to portray life on the Home Front in a dramatically vivid manner, as well as comparing it with the experiences of civilians elsewhere. During World War Two, enemy bombers dropped thousands of bombs on British towns and cities which became very dangerous places, as everyone was at risk during an air raid. One way to protect people was to provide air-raid shelters. Another was to move them somewhere safer. This was called 'evacuation' and children were the largest group of evacuees. But where did they all go? "Evacuation" will tell you the answer to this and many other questions.
