104pp. Sparsely illustrated in black and white. Signed and inscribed by the author, Violet Butler, on the title page. Recollections of a young girl whose teenage years were overshadowed by the second world war; living in Dover, at the edge of UK defences, girls helped their mothers make blackout curtains, and all struggled to do their bit. She went on to become a NAAFI cook, with doodlebugs overhead and in sight of gunsights.
