The stories of the British children sent abroad to Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa during the Second World War encompasses prevailing social attitudes to class, child welfare, religion and national identity. Drawing on primary sources, including diaries, letters, and interviews, Penny Starns reveals both the personal experiences of the ‘sea-vacs’ and how the scheme influenced international wartime policy.
