Eleanor Watkins revisits the past and relives what she finds there; memories of her childhood in a very different world from today's. She recaptures the joys of those memories and the wonder and freedom of being young and growing up on a border farm. Journey into the past with Eleanor as she reflects on the value of family and faith, whilst also providing a broader picture of rural life in mid-20th century Wales.

From her earliest memories of post-World War Two Britain, to fresh challenges presented by growing up, Blue Remembered Hills is a biographical exploration of personal stories and revelations, as well as the more universal challenges that make up the experience of childhood. Eleanor reminds us all that above everything else, the most important thing parents can give their children is love.
