In Millions Like Us" Virginia Nicholson tells the story of the women's Second World War through a host of individual women's experiences. We tend to see the Second World War as a man's war featuring Spitfire crews and brave deeds on the Normandy beaches. But in conditions of "Total War" millions of women - in the Services and on the Home Front - demonstrated that they were cleverer more broad-minded and altogether more complex than anyone had ever guessed. "Millions Like Us" tells the story of how these women loved suffered laughed grieved and dared; how they re-made their world in peacetime. And how they would never be the same again..."Vividly entertaining uplifting and humbling "Millions Like Us" deserves to be a bestseller". (Bel Mooney "The Daily Mail"). "Passionate fascinating profoundly sympathetic". (Artemis Cooper "Evening Standard"). Virginia Nicholson was born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and grew up in Yorkshire and Sussex.
