Book
Paperback. Condition: Good. The young woman who made her name with Testament of Youth had by 1939 become an internationally respected writer. By producing her Letters to Peace Lovers throughout World War II she put her reputation on the line, with her opposition to saturation bombing and her concern about the sterility of some of the Government's war aims, including that of unconditional surrender. She wrote and sent her letters to a long list of subscribers, many of them servicemen, advocating the preservation of those humanitarian values that so easily become twisted in wartime, and giving a different perspective to momentous events such as Dunkirk, the German invasion of Russia, the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Vera Brittain is most widely known as the woman who immortalized a lost generation in her haunting autobiography of the Great War, TESTAMENT OF YOUTH. Writer, pacifist and feminist, she condemned her provincial background but remained acutely conscious of the conventional elements in her own character; she revealed a richly emotional life in her writing but was outwardly sober and reserved; she possessed a fierce desire for fame and recognition but was ready to sacrifice both on matters of principle. This biography - comprehensive, authoritative and immensely readable - confirms Vera Brittain's stature as one of the most remarkable women of our time. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Vera Brittain's bestselling TESTAMENT OF YOUTH was based on her own copious diaries, which have a much greater intimacy than the account written for publication. These are those diaries. They begin in the carefree summer of 1913 with a blossoming romance and earnest discussions about the purpose of life and the nature of God - but not about the onset of war, which takes them by surprise. The diary entries begin to darken rapidly. Her brother, her fiance and most of their young men friends are killed in the war. Vera herself goes from knitting helmets and bandaging classes to abandoning her studies at Oxford to train as a nurse. She spent the remainder of the war nursing war-wounded men, among them German prisoners. Her diaries, written in London, Malta and France, contain moving descriptions of battle scenes and Zeppelin horrors over London. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Vere Britain (1893-1970) is most vividly remembered for one of the best loved autobiographies of the Great War, TESTAMENT OF YOUTH. Written with the co-operation of her daughter Shirley Williams, this candid biography draws on unpublished letters and reminiscences to illuminate the life and personality of a courageous and complex woman whose views on war and marriage were ahead of her time. It reveals new facts about ill-fated engagement with Robert Leighton and about the circumstances of her brother's death in Italy; about her semi-detached marriage with George Caitlin, her close friendship with the novelist Winifred Holtby and a passionate entanglement with her New York publisher. Her uncompromising pacifism in WWII led to her condemnation of the Allies saturation bombing of Germany, and to her being considered a dangerous subversive, refused a visa her children in the USA where they had been evacuated. A brilliant portrait which takes us from the idealistic girl to the ambitious and combative survivor of two years and ultimatley to the older woman of disarming honesty and integrity. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Red paper over boards. Good+. First published in 1933. Former owner name in ink on endpaper. No dust jacket. Evenly tanned text. Regarded as a classic, Vera Brittain?s honest and compelling account of her young adult experiences during World War I appeared in the form of an autobiography titled Testament of Youth. This important work of British literature became an immediate sensation upon publication in both England and the United States. Brittain?s authentic rendering of both her emotional and her intellectual world continues to resonate with readers seeking to learn more about the catastrophic effect of the Great War on the younger generation of the early 20th century. Thanks to Brittain, the world is much more aware of the significant contribution of women to the war effort, a contribution previously dismissed in light of the sacrifices so many men made with their lives. Brittain lost her fiancé, her brother, and two close male friends to the war, all between the ages of 20 and 24.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Your battle wounds are scars upon my heart' wrote Vera Brittain in a poem to her beloved brother, four days before he died in June 1918. The rediscovery of TESTAMENT OF YOUTH has reminded a new generation of the bitter sufferings of women as well as men in the terrible madness of the First World War. This, the first anthology of women war poets for over sixty years, will come as a surprise to many. It shows, for example, that women were writing protest poetry before Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, and that the view of 'the women at home', ignorant and idealistic, was quite false.Many of these poems come out of direct experiences of nursing the victims of trench warfare, or the pain of lovers, brothers, sons lost. Poets include: Nancy Cunard, Rose Macaulay, Charlotte Mew, Alice Meynell, Edith Nesbit, Edith Sitwell, Marie Stopes, Katharine Tynan. Here, as elsewhere, 'the poetry is in the pity' - a moving record of women's experience of war. A diverse and moving collection of women's poetry and verse of the First World War.
