You may be interested in the second edition of my book BRITAIN AT WAR 1939 to 1945 What was life like during the war?, published to commemorate the seventieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War. It gives a short insight into life in wartime Britain and is told from the perspective of people who actually experienced the war, with an overview of the major campaigns, enlivened by quotations from Churchill’s speeches. I am told that the chapters about the Home Front, depicting my life as a schoolboy, are particularly interesting.
