Endorsed by the renowned film producer and script writer, Robert Lewis Galinsky, 'Phoebe Sayers has poured her heart into telling 'her mummy's story' against the odds...whether the reader is a student of history, a chronicler of family, or simply someone who believes that even the darkest and most difficult life can lead to love and hope when the mind and soul are open to new experience and looking towards the light. Phoebe would say 'it's her mummy's story' when she describes her grandmother's lifestyle when her mother was born and what happened when all luck and fortune went away. But really, it's Phoebe's story... She has brought this tome to life, to bring us hope and entertainment from what was an astonishing collection of notes and detail and material that would have remained otherwise undiscovered....she has taken a century of milestones and beautifully and painstakingly collected and woven them into a story of heartbreak, determination, and historical imagery we won't put down, and will never forget.' Ruth Lock designed the book jacket layout. She is able to capture the spirit and the feeling of the story and present it in such an artistic way that is reflective of heroine's life story.
