Key To All My Houses by Peggy Grayson

A Key to All My Houses is the story of a quite exceptional childhood spent in a bewildering succession of country cottages and furnished rooms across the length and breadth of Southern England in the 1920s and 30s.It is a humorous, poignant and enormously readable account of a childhood, peppered with grown up secrets, moonlight flits and imaginative enterprises to keep food in the pantry.
