Description
This moving story follows one woman's life from her working-class Glasgow upbringing in the 1920s to her experiences during the Depression, Second World War and its aftermath. Through vivid recollections, Netta Dawson shares her family's struggles and triumphs as they navigated hardship and sought a better future.
Her account mirrors that of many working-class women and families of the time, who persevered in the face of adversity to build a life for themselves. With unflinching honesty, Dawson recounts life in Corby, a steel town known as 'Little Scotland', offering a poignant glimpse into the lives of those who lived through these trying times.
