Sombreros are Becoming

Description

In 1939, in the final stages of the Spanish Civil War, Nancy and Archie Johnstone made a desperate dash for the border with the children they had sheltered in their hotel in Tossa de Mar. Once in France the children were interned in a concentration camp. After doing all they could to help, the Johnstones went into exile in Mexico.

Sombreros are Becoming, the third volume of Nancy's memoirs, is a light-hearted account of how they rebuilt their lives in Cuernavaca.
