In recent years the part played by women in WW2 has increasingly become the subject of both popular history andscholarly analysis.The demands of Total Warin which every economic and industrial sinew of the nation was bent towards victorycalled forth an immense contribution from womennot only on the domestic front but also in the fieldsfactories and forces frequently in roles which wouldhave been inconceivable in the years before 1939.This marvellously illustrated booka project long cherishedby Dame Vera Lynnwhose indefatigable war work has become alegend present an anthology of women's experience throughout the warseen through their eyes and told in their own words.We follow nurses to the front line in the Western Desert and Normandy; learn how women Air Raid Wardens coped with the horrors of the Blitz and the V-weapons; and share the courage of Resistance workers and SOE agents in Occupied France. In 'Unsung Heroines'diarieslettersmemoirs and interviews combine to paint a vivid picture of wartime service and sacrifice.Some of these stories are harrowingothers are full of humour and quirky detail.They provide living testimony to the bravery resourcefulness and sheer strength in adversity of women at war.For many of themthe war years werequite literallythe experience of a lifetime.In the words of one member of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force WAAF: 'None of us would think of ourselves as heroinesnot even the most decorated.We just carried on from day to day coping as best as we couldand incidentally met a lot of people from all over the world wewouldn't have done otherwiseand had a lot of fun on the way.'
