London War Trophy

Post-war Londoners managed to survive despite lost and broken relationships war-damaged surroundings and food and clothes rationing. A strong sense of comradeship was found in the groups clubs and other social bodies that evolved during this time while exploiting ones individuality was also not forgotten. Materialism heavy politics and checking whether ones words and actions fitted into a heavily prescribed correctness were almost unknown factors but despite this there was less polarisation of thought and fanaticism. This autobiography goes into explicit details of childhood adolescence family life schools churches youth projects and the world of art in the 1940s 50s and 60s. It also outlines an individuals finding and acceptance of the Christian faith.
