The WWII domestic front is a period of history that always draws me back, the personal records so compelling, forever putting that question “What would you have done?” Coped like some, despaired like others, made and mended with the best of them no doubt, but for those at the time, always the nagging worries of how this war will end – what does the future hold. I’ve read countless books based on the Mass Observation archive yet Jennifer Purcell has found many new stories, uncovered many new facts but above all it is the raw emotion of these womens’ experiences that makes this such vital reading.
