Title: Sun in winter
Subtitle: a Toronto wartime journal, 1942 to 1945
First published: 2003
Description: "When World War II started, Gunda Lambton was living in England with her husband, illustrator Garth Williams, and their two children. In 1942, she became a "war guest," a single mother sent from England to Toronto to avoid the war. Sun in Winter details Lambton's first years in a new country, capturing her keen interest in life in Canada and drawing vivid pictures of the many people who helped her survive." "While most memoirs of the war years stress the dramatic and heroic, Sun in Winter is a tribute to the quiet areas of endurance and pleasures of discovery that also distinguished this period."--Jacket.
