Marjorie's Journey: On A Mission of Her Own, Paperback / softback Book

Marjorie's Journey: On A Mission of Her Own Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Against the frightening backdrop of World War II, a young Scottish woman took ten children by ship through the waters of the Atlantic from Scotland to South Africa, where she set up a home for them called Bairnshaven.

An unusual portrayal of motherhood, nuclear family and love, Marjorie's story comes to life through diary pages, letters, telegrams and photographs.

This true story is a fresh take on the role that women played during the war, highlighting the strength and courage shown, and focusing on hope and unconditional kindness.
