Somerset Centenarians
As part of Somerset Care’s 20th anniversary celebrations we are publishing a book of the life stories of 20 of the centenarians we care for.
The 20 centenarians featured in the book are not all Somerset born and bred, but by reason of their varying circumstances they have all become residents of the county as they celebrate their centuries. Their stories are vastly different, from the Tiller Girl to the South African Lady to the men and women who have always lived here. Each of their stories contains love and loss, and includes their own personal experiences of the momentous events that shaped the 20th century. The book was written by Kalina Newman, with photographs from the subjects’ own archives and contemporary portraits by Anita Corbin, and is published by Wellington-based Halsgrove Publishing.
