History

 * Liverpool during WW II.

Liverpool was one of the hardest hit cities during the blitzes of WW II. It is the major port on the western side of the UK, and therefore the location for most incoming materials from the USA and the rest of the world.

Children grew up in that era playing on the bomb rubble and in burned out houses. Many were injured from secondary collapses.

It took almost 20 years after the end of the war before the city was completely cleaned up and re-built.


 * General history of the city

LIverpool is also famous as the major port for LDS emigrants from Europe leaving for the USA. More than 70% of all emigrants left from the city, and there is a major statue to these pioneers at the Albert Dock.
