This diary covers the Second World War as seen by a housewife, living mainly in London, who was furiously writing books, letters and articles. She was an active pacifist, much sought after as a speaker and lecturer, and a woman at the centre of London's socialand political life. She corresponded with her children evacuated to the U.S.A., (her daughter is Shirley Williams, the politician) , and made it her business to follow all wartime events.
