EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of WW2 story book illustrations from the 1940s. The pair of images, taken from Peter Dawlish's "Captain Peg-Leg's War," transport us to a world filled with courage and sacrifice during World War II. In the first illustration, we see workers bustling about in the stoke hold of a ship, their faces etched with determination as they work tirelessly to keep the vessel running smoothly. The scene is alive with activity, capturing the essence of wartime urgency and camaraderie. Peter Dawlish's storytelling comes to life through these evocative illustrations, offering a glimpse into the challenges faced by those on the front lines of battle. From daring sea voyages to heroic acts of bravery, "Captain Peg-Leg's War" is a testament to the resilience and spirit of individuals during one of history's darkest periods. As we gaze upon these images, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless men and women during WWII. Their stories deserve to be remembered and honored for generations to come. This print is not just a piece of art; it is a window into our past, allowing us to connect with those who lived through tumultuous times. Let it serve as a reminder of our shared history and inspire us to never forget the lessons learned from war.
