When I Were a Nipper . . .Andrew Davies
Yet more oddball nostalgia from the When I Were a Lad . . . series-this time focusing on the younger years
In these photos from a time when it was fun to play with a tangerine box and not an X-box, tots are dangled offbuildings, put in the custody of dogs, given baths in the street, and used for unsuitable photo opportunities byunthinking parents. In turn, they torment the family pet by dressing it up in a sailor suit or getting it to act as agolf tee. This collection is full of the same delightfully pre-health & safety shots from the 1930s-1950s that madethe first two books successful.

When I Were a School Lad . . .Andrew Davies
Like its predecessor When I Were a Lad , this collection mines the rich vein of nostalgia created by archivephotos- this time fewer children in peril, more children at schoolAh, the past. A time when children could roll in the street, when boys were allowed to play cowboys and Indians,and when school dinners were made from some of the hardest substances known to man. This collection straps
on its rose-tinted spectacles once more and ventures back into the simpler childhoods of the 1940s, 1950s, and1960s, a time when schoolteachers were feared and when children indulged in such exotic pastimes of the dayas stamp collecting and playing not with Xboxes, but tangerine boxes.

When I Were a Lad . . .Snapshots from a Time that Health and Safety ForgotAndrew Davies
The good old pre-safety days-a time before seatbelts, when you could throw snowballs without filling out a riskassessment report, and children were allowed in with the animals at the zooProtective goggles, protective gloves, safety helmets-all overrated. This hilarious photo collection looks at theglorious -yet-risky childhoods of yesteryear before the authorities said that kids couldn't do anything because itwas all too dangerous. The authors have trawled through the major historic archives to find some glorious photoopportunities where the safety angle of the participants was the last thing anyone thought of. Children perchhappily on lethal, limb - mangling machinery; stand all -smiles on live crocodiles; pose on unexploded munitions;cuddle vermin; and get scooped from the street by passing tram conductors! Take a nostalgic trip back to a timewhen children got dirty, wandered the streets on their own, and had strange pets.

When I Were a LassSnapshots from a Time that Political Correctness ForgotJoan Bradshawe
SummaryA girl's view of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, from the same team behind When I Were A Lad and When I Were ANipper Jampacked with nostalgic photos from a time when little girls were made of sugar and spice and all things nice-
except sugar was rationed so it was more likely to be beetroot, this nostalgic trip includes scary dolls, miserabletrips to the seaside, donkeys, and that essential fashion item, gym shorts. This look back through barely- held -together rose-tinted glasses reveals, through a series of vintage photos, a time when radio and gramophoneswere the only distraction, toys were few and far between, a doll was a thing to be treasured, and a trip to theseaside was a grand adventure.
