This is the remarkable testimony of the unsung heroines of the Second World War: the ordinary housewives of Britain and Germany who were left to survive without their menfolk, sometimes for over seven years. The story is told in their own words dramatic, funny, tragic, poignant. Each letter or journal, seen here for the first time, gives a unique insight into the effects of war on everyday life and relationships. Though women on both sides were forced to regard each other as enemies, this book demonstrates that their sufferings were universal a compelling plea for peace.
