From Doodlebugs to Devon
Price: £10.00
Stock: 10 available
June 1944. Housewife Yvonne Shaw's life on the Home Front is shattered when Hitler's terror weapons, the 'doodlebugs' or flying bombs, bombard south London. After several fearful weeks she escapes to Devon (first Exmouth, then Budleigh Salterton), but even there her troubles are not over.
Yvonne's is a unique voice: brave, honest and witty. Hers is the story of a wife, husband and son who long for the war to be over so they can live together.
