Publisher's Synopsis
In November every year we remember the sacrifice and courage of soldiers, sailors and airmen in two world wars. Sadly, as each year passes, only handfuls of veterans survive to tell their stories, and those of their comrades who paid the ultimate price. But there's another group of women and men, themselves also now elderly, who survived a war - who faced hardship, danger, brutality and terror. They may not have borne arms, or worn a uniform, but they survived the horrors of war - as children - and they bear its scars. They may not be veterans of war, but they are victims and survivors of it. Author Chris Manby and WW2 expert Simon Williamson finally give a voice to those children, and reveal some of the very few untold stories of World War Two.
