With the sixtieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War
looming, this new edition of the Wartime Scrapbook revives memories
of this evocative time in Britain's history. Life on the home front
revolved around rationing, blackouts, and air raid precautions,
bringing out that British spirit - humour coupled with making-do
and determination. Poster propaganda kept the population digging
for victory during the years of the Home Guard, Women's Land Army
and austerity with dried eggs. Drawn from Robert Opie's unrivalled
collection, this new edition of The Wartime Scrapbook profusely
illustrates a unique period in history - the song sheets, magazine
covers, comic postcards, fashion and food, games, propaganda
posters and a wealth of wartime ephemera whose very survival is
remarkable.
