AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I was born in London on a snowy morning in January not at all like the picture on the cover. I didn't mean this to be a book. It was meant for just me, drawing to remind me where I came from...

'This astonishing book of memories is an intensely personal record of the first seven years of his life. Neil Curtis takes you into his world, through a child's perspective, until the time his family leaves England to sail to Australia. The Memory Book is his story, but it will reconnect you to the pulse of your own childhood.' (Publisher's blurb)
