Book Description
Jack Kramsky – the author’s maternal great grandfather – escaped from Russia as a 13-year-old stowaway on a ship, ending up in South Wales, and not America, which was his intended destination with dreams of a better life. Jack was a kind religious man and a real character, confirmed by his many run-ins with the law while bringing up his large family. A Kramsky Scrap Book is full of family anecdotes and tales, often originally captured by the author on tape recorder. It’s also a mine of information about Swansea and the Gower coast, which held special memories for the author, who has retraced many of the journeys made by Jack.
