Author Pat Ross, celebrated for her previous studies of Hampshire folklore and local history, has woven together a fascinating tapestry of recollection from those who saw it all happen with their own eyes. Hampshire At War records these memories in the witnesses' own words, their authentic voices, and is illustrated with contemporary pictures, some of which have never before been published. The genesis of the book was an oral history of Hayling Island's experience of Hitler's War. Surprised by the number and quality of the stories gleaned, the author then resolved to widen her research, and the completed book now encompasses the whole county - plus contributions from beyond its borders. As a testimony to the enduring grit and courage of Hampshire people, and as a memorial to those who, sadly, did not survive to tell their own stories, this book will become a classic of its genre.
