Far from the East End : the moving story of an evacuee's survival and search for home
Jones Simantel, Iris, 1938-2012
Book
Born in 1938 under threat of looming war, Iris spent her early years playing in the rubble of bombed buildings in Dagenham by day and cowering in a dusty shelter at night. But the hardships of poverty and the dreaded Blitz could not match the pain she felt at her parents' indifference. This book tells her story.
