Bolting Horses and Falling Bombs

Author Anthony Trevail was born in 1936 in Plymouth and witnessed first hand the terrible bombing of that city by Hitler''s Third Reich. Through the eyes of a child the war is shown to have been a time of great adventure. Yet looking back and writing with the hindsight of maturity Trevail shows that for adults it was a time of fear and of tragedy. This book is of great interest not only for its evocation of what it was like for one family that lived through the devastation of war but for the way it highlights how individual events such as bolting horses determine the course of history making and breaking families along the way. This incredible story is based on real persons and events as experienced by the author and also as recounted to him by his parents. To fill in certain gaps in the events and to protect the identity of some of those still living some names and events are fictional.
