The Bickersteth Family World War II Diary Dear Grandmother

In this family account of life in wartime Britain, the thoughts of old and young, the centrally involved and the isolated, jostle continuously. This volume contains insights into the ways of government and workings of Whitehall, the position of the Church of England, and the problems of education among a vast conscript army. It is also a social document of the manner in which the disruptions and danger of life were coped with during wartime.
