Inhoud:

Snapshots of gaiety and celebration are how some people today think of Britain in 1945. This book tells the real story of what happened when millions of ex-servicemen returned home. It draws on their personal letters and diaries to illuminate the darker side of the homecoming experience for ex-servicemen, their families and society at large.
