A social history of Buckingham during the Second World War - this covers everything from ARP to VJ Day via the Home Guard, the Land Army, rationing, evacuation and the blackout. A model local social history.

The ancient town of Buckingham's experience of the Second World War was typical of many other English county towns: from ARP exercises, gas masks, blackouts and Anderson shelters; the formation of the Home Guard and the Land Army to VE and VJ Days via rationing, the arrival of evacuated children and the impact of evacuees and the presence of foreign troops in the town. All these aspects of the Home Front are covered by Pip Brimson in her history - which pays special attention to the contribution made by Buckingham's women to victory. This is a model local history of interest to all those keen on social history in the war - not just to those who know Buckingham!
