We'll Meet Again: Childhood memories run deep (Inscribed) - Steele, Veronica; Blicq, Ron

INSCRIPTION FROM VERONICA (RON BLICQ) on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; How would you feel if the Government announced that, for your children's safety, you should send them away to another country? and you have to decide this evening if they are to go? That was a real decision faced by parents of children living on the British Island of Guernsey in 1940. The children left the next day and did not return for five years. The first story in this unique book describes parents as they prepare for their children's departure, and then follows the children as they huddle in the depths of a ramshackle cattle boat crossing u-boat infested waters. In the second story you meet Rosalind, who was evacuated at age 7, lodged with a family she grew to love, and then returned home to find she hardly knew her parents. and they had no idea how to cope with a youngster who had become a questioning teenage hiding her love for her 'temporary' family.
