Publisher Description: This text features the full wartime diaries of Esther Rowley who had, it seems, independent financial status and influential friends in Devon society. However, her house was situated near the sea and a short distance from a local army camp and docks, so she was faced with frequent attacks from low-flying German aircraft. |
