The Ghosts of Yesteryear

Looking back with warmth, wit and honesty, Kathleen Dayus returns to her childhood years in a Birmingham slum and life before marriage. Now in her nineties, the author recalls the support and affection of her father and elder sister Mary; the rivalries and friendships of her schooldays; her early working experiences and romantic ecounters – memories that remain as sharp and as evocative as ever.
