Private CRL Smith

Meer over het boek

No Ordinary Life tells the story of a young couple's experience of World War II and its influence on their lives. It's a story of love and its resilience during extraordinarily difficult times, the time before, during and just after World War II. Their participation took them from war-torn Glasgow and the battlefields in France, North Africa and a small Greek Island in the Aegean, to life in a German POW Camp and a timber camp in the Highlands of Scotland. When the war finally ended, they left Scotland as 'Ten Pound Poms' and established a new life in Australia, far away from memories that were best left behind. This book is as much about the times in which they lived as it is about them.
