The Second World War changed the lives of all those who lived through those turbulent years. The people of Manchester were no exception - and their resilience and spirit in the face of the numerous hardships during this period is brought to life in this second edition of Manchester at War. The book opens with a look at life during the "Hungry Thirties" and the run up to war, when life for the average northern working class person could be a battle for survival. Other chapters include Manchester's 'Home Front': the effects of rationing, make-do-and-mend, the black market, the Home Guard, evacuation, entertainment, work and leisure as well as air raid precautions and civil defence. The selection of photographs from the archives of the "Manchester Evening News" features many images of war-torn Manchester that have been previously unpublished.
