As we progress through time, the pool of individuals capable of providing firsthand insights into the ordinary routines of the early 20th century naturally dwindles. Those intimate, yet subtle, anecdotes that offer glimpses into the past become scarcer. Ethel May Elvin, born in 1906, vividly recounts her father’s duty as a sentry at Queen Victoria’s funeral, the hardships and simple joys of a working-class Edwardian upbringing, her experiences growing up amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, and her resilience during the Second World War.
For those captivated by the minutiae of historical events and the authentic daily lives of the majority, this book presents a truly one-of-a-kind and enthralling narrative.”
Please note this is an Ex Libris book printed in Large Print.
