Memories of Childhood

Meer over het boek

The memoir chronicles Martin Nicholson's early life, beginning in 1937 in Rio de Janeiro and spanning his family's relocations across continents during significant historical events, including World War II. It captures the challenges of post-war Britain, particularly the harsh winter of 1946-1947, and the experiences of boarding school. Throughout these transitions, Nicholson emphasizes the stability provided by his close-knit family. This volume is the first in a planned series, detailing his journey up to his retirement from the Diplomatic Service in 1997.
