Beskrivning

Christmas during war-time - a memoir of community spirit and the sense of coming together and supporting each other Dot May Dunn grew up in Derbyshire, the daughter of a miner, during the wartime years. In 1951 she joined the NHS as an early recruit and went on to train as a nurse - but this heartwarming memoir focuses on one Christmas, during the second world war. Dot's books are full of wonderful anecdotal insight into the life that she has experienced, written with warmth, humour and vivid accounts of her surroundings - from deprivation, health problems and poverty, to personal determination, the surprises faced by midwives and the social history of the pre- and post-war years. Dot draws upon her wealth of experience and shares her life with her readers, provoking both laughter and tears along the way.From the author of TWELVE BABIES ON A BIKE
