Description

Julie Hall has written a nostalgic and wryly amusing account of her early life in the City of Hull. She writes of her ‘ordinary life’ as a member of a ‘mostly happy’ family in the 1960s.

Written originally as a legacy for her own children, the book holds much interest for all who enjoy reading of times gone by. The book includes chapters on school life, bonfire night, Christmas, holidays (always in England despite often bad weather!), pets and getting the family’s first car.

’An Ordinary Life’ is full of warmth and family, community life and love. Illustrated with many intimate family photographs in both black and white and colour, this makes for an interesting and charming read.
