A tour of World War II-stricken London offers insight into the city's undaunted human spirit during the final year of the war, sharing the experiences of individuals who endured difficult challenges and helped rebuild the city. By the author of Ungrateful Daughters. Praise for Ungrateful Daughters "Maureen Waller frames an absorbing narrative of the Glorious Revolution." - The New York Times Book Review "This is a family drama reported with a keen ear for delicious, gossipy detail and a satisfying willingness to take sides." - The Washington Times "A highly readable, thoroughly researched family saga that shows vividly how the personal and the political interacted to produce one of the seminal events in British history." - Publishers Weekly "Colorful period details and vivid portraits of legendary figures like the great Duke of Marlborough: lively, instructive history." - Kirkus Reviews "Waller's fluent narrative is solidly grounded." - Library Journal "This is a wonderful biography that British historical buffs will enjoy and learn from." - Midwest Book Review.
