Mary's Diary (A Secret Journal of the 1930s - Volume One 1935) eBook Mary McIntosh revisits her diary for the years 1935-1939. This is Volume One which covers 1935. The other four volumes will be available soon as seperate books. In Volume One Mary recalls listening to Mary Pickford and Rudy Vallee on the radio, seeing Shirley Temple in "The Little Colonel" at the newly opened Radio City Music Hall, hearing of the crash and death of Will Rogers and Wiley Post, and the assassination of Huey Long. She also remembers Roosevelt's announcement of a "bank holiday" and the loss of the $1.35 in her Christmas Club account. Over the five volumes she describes the abdication of the English King, the fiery disaster of the Hindenburg, romantic rides in a rumble seat, visits to England on a steam ship, her first sexual encounters with a lover, and hundreds of other episodes brought back to her 90 year old mind in clear and vivid detail from the diary entries she made so long ago.

1930s Scrapbook Filled to the brim with images, this scrapbook of the 1930s overflows with nostalgia, for those who remember that extraordinary era. For those who do not, this wealth of imagery provides a vivid insight into a time when sliced bread had just reached the table and Butlin's holiday camps had recently opened. Life in the 1930s for many was not easy; for others, who had known Victorian times, the pace of change was frightening, and 'modern' life led to 'nerve tension'. Yet change brought a better standard of living and numerous new products helped the daily routine. Electrical appliances were a boon to housewives without servants, affordable motor cars made access to the countryside easier, new fun included Dinky Toys, Monopoly and a stream of delectable confectionery (Mars bars, KitKat, Black Magic, Cadbury's Roses). The aluminium milk bottle top made its appearance. Design was memorable for the red telephone kiosk, the Anglepoise lamp and the Underground map - all still in evidence today.
