When war was declared, the Browning family were on holiday on the Sussex Coast. But home was London, and London was the prime target for the subjugation of the British people. 'Finn's War' is the story of that family during the terrible years that ensued. The Brownings had four sons. Only the youngest, Finn, was too young to bear arms, as their father had in the Great War of 1914-18. But Finn, too, witnessed terrible events. Whilst the horrors are not spared, there is as well, another side: humour, love, romance, courage, determination. In essence, all those qualities that saw the British people emerge in triumph from their trials. For those millions too young to have lived through such times, and for those that did, this is a compelling story.
