Inhaltsangabe
This childhood memoir records the years after World War II in Britain, starting in the summer of 1945 in Suffolk. It describes the excitement for children at this time, as bombsites became adventure playgrounds. The book recalls the characters of the period, and remembers the stealing and "scrumping" of apples from blitzed and abandoned houses, the tin baths, ration books, and demob suits. The author describes an early trip to London, a set of tin soldiers received as a birthday present, visits to the cinema to see Roy Rogers, and visits to the football grounds. The water-colors that accompany this special new edition of the classic story document the detail of post-war Britain, recreating for children a world that has since vanished.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Foreman, Michael (illustrator). Life for a young boy is different after the Second World War ends - the country is moving forward again and he is finding his place in the world. Once the victory parades are over and the barbed wire and unexploded bombs are cleared his attention is drawn to football, music, girls and art. Michael Foremans personal story is the story of life in Britain in the 40s and 50s - from soldiers returning from war to jazz clubs and teddy boys a time when everything changes. Like 'War Boy', 'After the War Was Over' is a lively and innovative combination of story and factual information with Foreman's trademark beautiful illustrations. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers GOR002548670
