A reviewer from Sydney, Australia, on Amazon.co.uk says he was born and bred in Lambeth and Vic's book, in a easy to read style, meanders from working class Lambeth to wartime evacuation to Berkshire and beyond. It offers a good basic study of family life. He felt he knew Vic's nearest and dearest. "The Newbury Weekly News" says "Vic" provides an insight into nine decades of social history. His story reveals that by focussing on the rich and famous, society has sidelined the wealth of stories waiting to be told by 'real' people.
