The Rats Palace: Childhood Memories of Wartime

By Jean Sharpe

After her family escaped the London blitz of WWII by moving to a little country village in Buckinghamshire, the author spent her childhood years watching an interesting assortment of characters parading through her life. War was declared in 1939 and ended in 1945 and those years left an indelible impression on family life.For many of those years, her father was away serving his country with the Irish Guards. This left her mother with full responsibility for four children in the struggles to provide food, clothing and shelter. The physical battle scars healed and faded away over time but the emotional scars persisted long after the war was over.
