Krise og krig kan få de værste sider frem i mennesker.1930’ernes armod kan være svær at forestille sig i dagens Danmark. Stor arbejdsløshed og barsk fattigdom var virkeligheden for mange. Danmarks rolle i Anden Verdenskrig fik senere stor betydning, særligt efter 1943, hvor flere begyndte at tvivle på en tysk sejr. Frygten for kommunisterne og deres styre spillede her en større rolle end man forestiller sig i dag. Den Spanske Borgerkrig og Finlandskrigen stod friske i folks erindring, og de ideologiske værdifronter var trukket hårdt op - med stor frygt og had til modparten.Få er tilbage, som har været vidner til - og levet med - 30’ernes krise og 40’ernes krig og efterkrigstid. Bent Hammeken er født i 1933, og giver os mulighed for at forstå lidt af hverdagslivet, som det så ud for blot et par generationer siden. I bogen ’Erindringsglimt’ deler han ud af sine minder fra en svunden tid, set med barnets øjne.
