In The Blink Of An Eye: Growing Up In Rural Oxfordshire (Oxfordshire Childhood)

For rural England, the 1950s and 1960s was a time of dramatic transition and change as we moved from wartime austerity with the radio and the local cinema as our entertainment, into the age of TV and the motor car. Social changes and changes in attitudes to sex, religion and the class system were also to have a major impact on rural life. This book attempts to capture this time of change as it affected the small hamlet of Fawler in North Oxfordshire, and to record for posterity a way of life now largely lost. It deals, sometime frankly, but sensitively with life as experience by the author with extensive contributions by his sister from her unpublished memoir of childhood.
