“I can see the disgust on the face of one neighbor when Jack, the
farmer, asked to lend a man, produced a land girl.” Mona Macleod
worked in Kirkubrightshire during the second World War, providing
the skilled labour needed on farms before mechanization. The girls
were given heavy agricultural work in fields, with animals,
carrying hundred weight sacks, sawing wood, felling trees, filling
up rat holes. It was a tough way to grow up, but this illustrated
memoir provides a record of a time when women faced the rigorous
physical challenges involved in winning the war at home.
