Publisher's Synopsis
The 1940s were a time when the British people pulled together in an unprecedented show of national unity. The decade saw men marching off to war, rationing, blackouts and bomb shelters, yet it also offered a glimpse of the modern world to come with the founding of the NHS, nationalization of the railways and the establishment of the first Butlins holiday camps. Here, cartoonist Tony Husband takes you back to a decade of austerity and courage, leading the reader on a gentle journey down memory lane.
