A Dot on the Landscape
Set in the Midlands during WW2 a young Birmingham girl is enlisted into the Women's Land Army by her mother, who fears for her safety knowing that the city will be targeted by German bombers. Dorothy the heroine, would have been diagnosed as dyslexic today, but back then such souls were considered 'dim' or 'vague' and it was such prejudice that may have prevented her fulfilling her ambition of joining the armed forces. Her first assignment on a farm in Warwickshire, she joins an eclectic group of women from diverse backgrounds. Her mother had planned that being part of a disparate and well-educated team, her self-confidence would grow. It did, but not without exposure to perceived sexual abuse, fifth-columnist intrigue and the discovery of a long-lost relative.

Before the Last All Clear
Some recall it as the greatest adventure of their lives. For others, being a wartime evacuee was a nightmare. These are the witty yet deeply poignant memories of a man still haunted by the cruelties he endured. During World War II, around three and a half million British children were evacuated away from possible air raids in the big cities in one of the largest social upheavals Great Britain has ever seen. One of those children was Ray Evans. This is the story of a young evacuee from Liverpool sent to live in the Welsh town of Llanelli. Separated from his mother, brothers and sisters, six-year old Ray was dispatched to a series of families who ignored, exploited and brutalised him. Pushed from pillar to post, he finally finds happiness with a family who make him so welcome that he is reluctant to leave when war ends. Set in a world of ration books, air-raid sirens and ever-present danger, this is a candid and direct account of wartime Britain as seen through the eyes of a child.
