Quote from book, "There are many published accounts of military exploits during World War Two, but less is heard of the women who were left behind. In her true and light hearted story, Mary Sydney Burke relates how she strived to bring up her children in wartime England on a meagre army allowance while her husband was on active service with the Grenadier Guards. After being reunited for a spell of postwar duty in Singapore, the family returned to England before finally migrating to Australia in a spirit of adventure and hope. Mary Sydney Burke writes frankly of the later problems caused by her husband's failing health, during which she struggled to keep the family from falling apart. Her indomitable spirit and deep faith shine out in a story that is in turn amusing moving and very perceptive." Published by Janus Publishing Company, hardcover with dust jacket, slight edgewear on jacket otherwise in very good condition, 214 pages, copyright 1998.
