Synopsis

The true story of a boy and his family and how they endured the effects of the war and coped with shortages and rationing. He was born in 1936 at the depths of the Depression. His father was laid off work due the lack of demand for cotton goods, only going to the mill at widely-spaced intervals. Without the Welfare State which came later, the lives of the families of all cotton operatives was extremely hard, with little else to look forward to except a bleak future. Then came the war, which, due to the sudden and momentous increase in demand for cotton goods, was of benefit to workers - if no one else. Only after the war was over did the people of the cotton industry really benefit see big improvements in their lives.
