Book Description
It was from this unique Island city that Richard the Lionheart set out on his Crusades and Horatio Nelson sailed to meet his destiny at the Battle of Trafalgar. More recently, Portsmouth played a key part in the D-Day invasion which turned the tide of World War II. In Just a Pompey Boy, we return to a time when bomb sites were adventure playgrounds, the weekly family bath was taken in a tin tub and a foreign holiday meant a week's B&B on the Isle of Wight. Life could be hard, but, as the author says, offered many compensations that seem missing from today's world. Whatever your age and wherever you live, you will find Just a Pompey Boy a funny, moving and rewarding read.
