Summary
Published under the auspices of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, this work is illustrated with photographs depicting land-girls in nearly every branch of the work undertaken during the war. The text by Vita Sackville-West aims at giving a human picture of the land-girl's life. A number of tables of facts and statistics are also included. It is thus a comprehensive survey of an important branch of women's work in the war.
