Bucks, Beds and Bricks: A Phorpres Childhood

By Jean Blane Flannery

This is the lively and evocative account of a young girl growing up post WWII in the two English counties of the title. Phorpres was the trademark of the London Brick Company Ltd, always a backdrop to her life. The author vividly conjures for us images of an era that is very different to the present in so many ways. Yet the warmth of family and friends is an ever enduring theme.For all who lived through that time this book will bring memories flooding back. For those who were born later it offers a glimpse into a bygone age that is not so very far distant in years from now - but that is nonetheless another world.
