Trace the Wyrwoll family from 1920 onwards as they witness the Hitler regime's rise and fall. Follow their emigration to Wales with other miners, the lengths they went to assimilate, and their decision never to return to Germany.
This book’s title clearly highlights one of its major elements- World War 2. However, the reader would have to access the abstract in order to understand the context in which the title page exists: WW2 being such a huge, but still very popular subject.
The main target audience, of course, is academics and historians, both professional and local but also interested individuals who might wish to add to their depth of knowledge of the subject. Of particular interest is that the audience can trace the Wyrwoll family (via the oral history exercise) through major events from 1920 onwards. The family would have witnessed first-hand the Hitler regime, its sickening development and eventual demise.
Of particular interest is absorbing the progress the family made following their emigration to Wales with other miners, the atmosphere the German employees had to contend with and the lengths they had to go to assimilate and never to return to their sending country-Germany.
