A Shelter from the Storm

Shortly after the outbreak of war with Germany, David then just four years old, was taken by his parents to live in the city of Portsmouth. A difficult decision that had meant leaving the comparative saftey of Reigate to face the Blitz with all its dangers and devestation.

The book explores the two worlds of childhood - the real world and the world of the imagination, adventure and play set against the backdrop of the turbulent thirties and forties.
