Publisher's Synopsis

It wasn't only in Europe and the tropics that women served their country during WWII - in Wales, they were the backbone of the war effort, keeping calm' and 'carrying on' during one of the most turbulent times in 20th century history. The second title in Honno's Voices series, Parachutes and Petticoats brings this part of Welsh history to life, focusing in the lives of ordinary Welsh women during this time.'
