Also a huge thank you to the little museum in Russell in the Bay of Islands, where I spent so much time pouring over old photographs and scraps of information to learn what life was like there back in the 1930s and 1940s.

Thanks also to the fabulous Imperial War Museum, in London, which is just the very best place to learn about both world wars and how they affected ordinary people.
