From a child's viewpoint, the prewar years of the 1930s were full of carefree, halcyon days when the sun always used to shine, but for many people the 1930s were, regrettably, quite the opposite. In this nostalgic book evoking recollections of wartime in Uxbridge, the memories are the author's, however the sights and events are those that will be remembered by many others. All aspects from prewar to postwar Uxbridge are covered including street scenes, schools, buildings, transport, leisure and entertainment, and personalities. The book will also be of interest to younger generations growing up in Uxbridge and to those who wish to learn more about the history of the area.
