A Home In The Country

During the Second World War, some 3 million people, most of them children, were evacuated from British towns and cities due to the danger of German air attacks; many were sent to the countryside, but some were sent to Canada, America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. A testimony to the resilience of the human spirit and the utter ingenuity of childhood, this heartbreaking tale explores the darker side of the British evacuation during the Second World War and is a testament to youthful resourcefulness and the will to survive.
