Women in the War beautifully weaves together the oral histories of ten remarkable women who dedicated their young adulthood to the war effort. From aiding codebreaking at Bletchley Park to plotting the Battle of the Atlantic and working alongside Churchill in the War Rooms below Whitehall, these are the women who helped to defend the Home Front and kept Britain going. Now with the wisdom of age they look back at how they coped with danger, trauma and stress, and tell how their spirits were fortified by friendship, fellowship and romance. Written by award-winning journalist Lucy Fisher, who is defence editor of The Times, this is a vivid exploration of how the war changed the lives of these women and society forever. Based on extensive interviews and including extracts from diaries, contemporary letters, and an array of photographs, this is a celebration of the bravery and resilience of these women and how they proved their worth and paved the way for equal rights. Their last words can be found here in this both nostalgic and forward-looking narrative, which provides many lessons for the modern reader on how to survive life's greatest difficulties with good cheer and fortitude.
