Tales of an Ordinary Man: (The Childhood Years) Part 2 (Volume 2) Mr Drew Rowlands 1st edition

The Childhood Years part 2 picks up the story of Ray Dagnall?s life several months after the destruction of his home by the Nazi bombs. Ray and his family are finally moving into a new house complete with an indoor loo. Life is transformed as he makes new friends, starts a new school and with a certain degree of inevitability becomes the class clown. He soon gathers around him like minded individuals until he eventually has a gang who get up to all sorts of mischief as the war continues to rage around them. As the tide of the conflict turns, Aunt Alice arrives home with her tales of Al Capone, seven husbands, several fortunes and a charging buffalo. This is a story of the coming of age of an ordinary boy in an extraordinary time, and the quick wit, humour and imagination that allows him to thrive.
