| Description: |
Peter Hepplewhite takes readers back to the war years when the U-Boat blockade reduced the food intake of everyone and starvation threatened Great Britain. With so many men at the front, girls were pressed into service to produce the crops and care for the animals needed to feed the population. |
| Synopsis: |
This book makes for a fascinating read, consisting of the personal accounts of five contributors - women who were actually in the Land Army during the Second World War. Together with information on why the Land Army was set up and what it involved, the book provides details on the training required, the uniforms worn and the work that the women were expected to do. An intriguing look at the completely new way of life experienced by the contributors in wartime Britain. Complete with colour and black and white photographs, glossary and index. |
