Description

Contrary to the Hollywood-style romanticism of popular novels and films, the Second World War was more than courage on the battlefield, plucky defiance and doomed love affairs. Family and civilian life had to go on. In the midst of black-outs, road-blocks and austerity, households had to feed and clothe themselves, to travel, to decorate and furnish their homes. In this meticulously researched and lavishly illustrated account, Mike Brown and Carol Harris draw on contemporary sources including government advice, periodicals and books to provide an authoritative, entertaining account of life in the time of air-raid sirens and rationing.

Author Biography:

Mike Brown is an authority on the Home Front during the Second World War and is author of several books, including The 1940s Look, The 1950s Look, and is co-author of Digging for Victory. Carol Harris is a journalist who specialises in the history of fashion in the 1930s and 1940s. She is the author of 'Collecting Fashion' and, 'Women at War: The Home Front', co-author of The Ration Book Diet, and has also contributed to exhibitions at the Imperial War Museum.
