Coming of Age in a World of Love, Tragedy, Laughter and Hardship.
This is the heart-warming sequel to John Cowell's bestselling account of a bygone era, 'The Broken Biscuit'.
Brought up in a time of desperate poverty, John's family was closely-knit, but lived without the luxuries that are taken for granted in the modern era. And yet John and his siblings never let their good humour, courage and generosity of spirit fade. Told with refreshing candour, this is a touching tale of those times that brings back to life an age of innocence and hardship - an age long gone, but not forgotten.
