The six long years of the Second World War changed Britain irrevocably. Yet some of the most important battles were fought not on the front lines, but in the hearts and minds of the men and women who lived through it./ From September 1939 to August 1945, the people of Britain had to live with constant anxiety about those they loved, with the fear iof enemy bombing and its terrible consequences, and with the privations entailed by the rationing of food and basic supplies. Through the diaries of nine men and women this book tells the story of the war as they experienced it, whether at home struggling simply to keep going, in high office with direct influence on its outcome, or protesting against it. For some, keeping a diary was a way of documenting their hopes and fears for an unforeseen future. For others, it was a way of carefully preserving their lives on the page, uncertain in what state they would find the world thje next time they woke. Together, they constitute a remarkable record of human endeavour and human cost, at a time when the whole world was locked in conflict and it often seemed that the outcxome rested on the shoulders of one small island. 378 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
