The period from 1943 to 1945 saw some of the most important events
of World War II, and few were fully aware of the decisions that
were to affect the outcome of this global conflict. Yet, a young
wartime secretary, Olive Christopherson, spent this remarkable time
working in Churchill's famous Cabinet War Rooms. She became one of
a tiny inner circle of people party to the political secrets of the
crucial final years of the conflict. Working for long hours in an
underground bunker opposite St. James' Park, Olive wrote a series
of letters to her fiance filled with incredible details about the
glamorous lifestyle and travel she enjoyed because of her job.
Published for the first time, this illuminating and poignant
correspondence offers a rare insight into the workings of the War
Rooms and documents the rich experiences of a woman with exclusive
access to the closed world of Churchill's inner circle.
