Book Synopsis Liverpool's Children in SWW by : Pamela Russell
Download or read book Liverpool's Children in SWW written by Pamela Russell and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the untold story of Liverpool's children in the Second World War. Whilst everyone is familiar with the tales of evacuees who were rushed out of the cities once the bombs started falling, many of us are unaware that many stayed behind, either by choice or necessity, as the city of their childhood disintegrated and burned around them. In the words of those who experienced the Liverpool Blitz first-hand, we hear of their adventures and misadventures, the fun and games and ever-present danger, and the humor and sorrow of those wartime years. This is an important and revealing look at the war as seen through the eyes of these children. This book not only explores the memories of a childhood ravaged by war, but also the formative effect this had on individuals' lives. It reflects the collective spirit of a city that refused to be crushed, even at the darkest hours of the Luftwaffe's bombing campaign. Ideal for anyone who lived through those times, or who is fascinated by experiences and the legacy of the wartime generation, this new title pays tribute to the war's forgotten children.
Book Synopsis Liverpool's Children in the 1950s by : Pamela Russell
Download or read book Liverpool's Children in the 1950s written by Pamela Russell and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2012-01-31 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Full of the warmth and excitement of growing up in the 1950s, awakening nostalgia for times that seemed cosy and carefree with families at last enjoying peacetime, this book is packed with the experience of school days, playtime, holidays, toys, games, clubs and hobbies conjuring up the genuine atmosphere of a bygone era. As the decade progressed, rationing ended and children’s pocket money was spent on goodies like Chocstix, Spangles, Wagon Wheels and Fry’s Five Boys. Television brought Bill and Ben, The Adventures of Robin Hood and, for teenagers, The Six-Five Special, along with coffee bars and rock ‘n’ roll.This book opens a window on an exciting period of optimism, when anything seemed possible, described by the children and teenagers who experienced it. Liverpool’s traditional sense of community, strengthened by the war years, provided a secure background from which children and teenagers could welcome a second Elizabethan era.

Book Synopsis The Liverpool English Dictionary by : Tony Crowley
Download or read book The Liverpool English Dictionary written by Tony Crowley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Know someone with an antwacky stem-winder? Heard the Band of Hope Street? Ever been on a vinegar trip? Do you jangle? Ever met a Cunard yank in the Dingle? Could you pay for a dodger with a joey? Have you heard a maccyowler in a jigger? The Liverpool English Dictionary records the rich vocabulary that has evolved over the past century and a half, as part of the complex, stratified, multi-faceted and changing culture of this singular city. With over 2,000 entries from 'Abbadabba' to 'Z-Cars', the roots/routes, meanings and histories of the words of Liverpool are presented in a concise, clear and accessible format. Born and bred in Liverpool, Professor Tony Crowley has spent over thirty years compiling this bold and innovative dictionary, investigating historical lexicons, sociological studies, works of history, local newspapers, popular cultural representations, and, most importantly, the extensive 'lost' literature of the city. Illuminating, often remarkable, and always enjoyable, this book transforms our understanding of the history of language in Liverpool.

Book Synopsis Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 by : Charlotte Wildman
Download or read book Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 written by Charlotte Wildman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faced with economic decline, unprecedented levels of unemployment and new forms of political extremism during Britain's last great economic crash, politicians and planners in Liverpool and Manchester responded by investing in dramatic and ambitious programmes of urban regeneration. Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 is the first book to provide the hitherto unknown story of the innovative transformation of these cities. Charlotte Wildman challenges academic scholarship in British history, which associates the post-1918 period with the emasculation of local government and the decline of civic culture. She shows that local politicians, planners, architects, businessmen and even religious leaders embraced innovative trends in creating distinct forms of urban modernities, which particularly changed the way women experienced the transformed city. Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 offers a complex, interactive and multipolar interpretation of the ways cities develop, pointing to new methods and ways of understanding both interwar Britain and urban history more generally. At a time of debate and discussion about devolution and decentralisation of government, this book makes an opportune contribution to debates about urban governance and regionalism in contemporary Britain.

Book Synopsis Lights of Liverpool by : Ruth Hamilton
Download or read book Lights of Liverpool written by Ruth Hamilton and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The O'Neils, who have lost brothers and sons into the bowels of London's East End, keep watch over their one remaining young male, a boy named Seamus. Hardworking and good-hearted, they cling together and help each other, and a whole community. Meanwhile, Rosh Allen mourns the loss of Phil, her dearly-beloved husband. Aided and impeded by her mother, Anna, she struggles to raise three fatherless children. With the help of a kind-hearted neighbour, her wounds begin to heal, and she begins to take the first faltering steps into 'normality'. Tess and Don Compton are on the verge of separation. An apparently greedy and selfish woman, Tess wants a semi-detached house, and all her own way. But what really lies behind her desire to live on the posh side of the street. Behind the three families, two men are at work. One will do serious damage; the other will reunite a clan that goes all the way back to Ireland and to ancestors thrown ashore from the ships of the Spanish Armada. Brilliant storytelling that is perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries' The Four Streets or Maureen Lee.
Book Synopsis Children of the Second Spring by : John Furnival
Download or read book Children of the Second Spring written by John Furnival and published by Gracewing Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Father Nugent founded many Institutions for the poor and needy in his native town of Liverpool and was instrumental in the scheme to take orphaned children to the New World to find a new home. He spearheaded the campaign to 'Save the Child' from the temptations and dangers of the streets, and he provided shelter to the marginalized and despised. He worked ecumenically with his colleagues from other churches in a town that was largely Protestant, and made education and the reform of the young his special concern for over fifty years. Much of what he pioneered still bears fruit today, and his work and name are perpetuated by the Nugent Care Society he founded in 1881 - originally the Liverpool Catholic Children's Protection Society." "This book is a timely reminder of Father James Nugent's work and his significance for us today, both for the Church and for society as a whole, setting his life in the context of his era which contained the seeds of so much that has borne fruit in our time. It is an encouragement to priests, and potential priests, in the mission of the Church today."--BOOK JACKET.
