Customer Reviews
Women Contributing unseen in the War Years
The author writes with warmth and true affection for her characters. I enjoyed the book very much, having become an eager reader of stories about women in the military during the world wars. These brave and generous women made great contributions in the war effort even without receiving the recognition they so richly deserved.
