The Last Coal Trip to Tenby

Overview

The dark clouds of war are gathering over Europe, yet the inhabitants of the South Wales town of Penddawn have other things on their minds: rugby, of course, religion, and the annual trip to the shores of Tenby—a chance to forget about both poverty and Hitler. But, for one small boy, the worlds of warfare and welfare mean very little; his mind is crammed with books and the wonders they contain. Drenched in the warm sun of nostalgia, this is a heartwarming tale of abiding friendships. Written with vigor and good humor, this book's cast of endearing characters will make a lasting impression.
