At the recent Who Do You Think Are? Live event, Family History Social met up with Margaret Roy from Malvern Family History Society. She mentioned the launch of her new book 'Striving for the Goal'. It commemorates the Centenary of West Kirby Grammar School on the Wirral through the eyes of a former pupil, Evelyn Roy, who attended in the 1920s. Using the diaries and memorabilia of her husband's aunt, Margaret has provided a unique snapshot of school life in the North-West in the 1920s.
The book is priced at £5.50 + 85p postage & packing. To order or for more information, please contact Margaret at [email protected]
