A Time Remembered

Born in 1925 Marjorie Major (nee Pank) grew up in the east coast sea port of Hull. Rather than a life history these memoires tell stories of particular events like a Christmas family party and in so doing capture a true sense of the 1930s and what family life must have been like for many children in England at that time. She also recalls the years of the Second World War when Hull was heavily bombed and her family moved out of the city after several near misses from enemy bombing. These teenage memories give a personal and poignant view of the great world upheaval that was taking place.
