Description

This true story tells of Arthur Huggins' remarkable journey as one of the last evacuees from Dagenham to Salcombe during World War Two. At just 7 and a half years old, Arthur was among the children evacuated from their homes in Essex to escape the threat of Hitler's bombers.

Along with his brother and other children from various schools, Arthur embarked on an adventure that would take him 250 miles from home and family. The journey marked the beginning of a new chapter in his life, one filled with challenges and excitement as he navigated his way through unfamiliar surroundings.

This book brings to life the stories of Arthur's experiences during this time, offering a unique glimpse into the lives of children who played a crucial role in Britain's war effort. A heartwarming and inspiring tale of resilience and courage, The Last Evacuee is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in World War Two history.
