"In letters written between 1937 and 1950 to her American pen pal, a working-class Londoner offers accounts of the Blitz and of wartime deprivations and postwar austerity, interweaving descriptions of terror with talk about theater, clothes, and family outings, providing a unique view of daily life during World War II"--Provided by publisher.
