Description

A gripping account of life in 1920s Halifax, where poverty and cruelty were all too common. Kathleen Swann's mother and grandmother endured unimaginable hardship, yet their stories are one of courage and resilience. The author shares the tales she heard as a child, passed down from her family members who refused to be defined by their circumstances. Instead, they grew into strong women, known simply as Phyll to those who knew them. Enhanced with historic photographs, this book offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in history. Through its unflinching and unsentimental portrayal, this biography sheds light on the lives of those who lived through it, revealing a story that is both heart-wrenching and inspiring.
