"In 1940 seven-year-old Tony Bailey was evacuated to the United States - one of more than 16,000 children sent overseas at a time when a Nazi invasion of England seemed likely. He spent four years with the wealthy Spaeth family in Dayton, Ohio, before returning to his parents in Hampshire. Evocative, heartfelt, and charming, this is a story of a double childhood - of a boy who became American while never ceasing to be British."--BOOK JACKET.
