FEW EGGS AND NO ORANGES: A DIARY SHOWING HOW UNIMPORTANT PEOPLE IN LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM LIVED THROUGHOUT THE WAR YEARS 1940-45
By Vere Hodgson
Synopsis
Vere Hodgson worked for a Notting Hill Gate charity during the Second World War; being sparky and unflappable, she was not going to let Hitler make a difference to her life, but the beginning of the Blitz did, which is why she began her published diaries on 25 June 1940 after the first air raid of the war on London. The war continued for five more years, but Vere's comments on her work, friends, what was happening to London and the news combine to make Few Eggs and No Oranges unusually interesting.
