Synopsis

Over the years, there have been lots of stories written about wartime, usually from the perspective of the many boys and young men who served, endured, suffered and fought during these horrific periods.However, this story is dedicated to the many ordinary, working-class mothers, sisters and daughters who were left behind to cope alone after their men were called-up to enlist in the British Armed Forces (either compulsorily or otherwise) during World War II, 1939-45.The stories are set around a Lancashire shipbuilding town and tell of stoic female determination, of sheer hard work and good old-fashioned ‘pluck’, the type required in order to weather the most dreadful of times and direst of circumstances, whilst still raising and caring for young families. And maybe sometimes, involving a bit of dancing & wartime romance!These stories will resonate throughout many similar working-class communities throughout our great country, as experienced during those terrible times and hardships.
