Publisher's Synopsis
In September 1939 Len Brown was evacuated from the East End of London to Fen Farm, Blo Norton, on the Norfolk-Suffolk border. He came from near starvation to a land of plenty: the cornfield at the back of the farmhouse stretching away into the distance, apples hanging in bunches from the trees. As he watched the chickens pecking at corn in the yard, Len thought he must be dreaming. But it was not a dream, and years of hard work followed, work that he recalls in this wonderful picture of life on a Norfolk farm over fifty years ago.
