The Reminiscences of a War Time School Boy

By Ivor George Williams

Book Overview

World War II is generally considered to have begun on 1 September 1939 when Nazi Germany invaded Poland. Many young children were born in wartime and knew nothing else in their early lives, whether or not they could comprehend it-but what about teens who grew up during that time? Author Ivor George Williams was born 25 February 1932, in Hereford, England, the same day many sources document that Adolf Hitler was granted German citizenship. In The Reminiscences of a Wartime Schoolboy, Williams records his life's story and all that occurred for him and his family during the war years and beyond, including his military service with the Welsh Guards from 1949 to 1954, with service in Germany and Egypt. Williams reached the age of fourteen in 1946 and was just a schoolboy during World War II, able to witness the final episode of Hitler's reign of terror. This memoir shares his observations, thoughts, and feelings experienced at the time, telling what it was like to live during war.
