A very nice copy, pictorial hard cover, without flaw. 5.5 X 6" 96 pages. "Women! Farmers can't grow all your vegetables" The 'Kitchen Front' was essential to the battle against the enemy. However, the impact on society was not confined to the war years. 'Austerity' and rationing dragged on until 1954 and to quote Anthony Powell "I say, I hope there'll be something to drink tonight. The wine outlook becomes increasingly desperate since France went. One didn't expect to have to fight the war on an occasional half pint of bitter and lucky if you find that". Illustrated throughout in colour and B/W.
