Product Description
This is the diary of Kitty, an 18-year-old VAD (Voluntary Aid Detachment), during the years of 1939 and 1940. As a nurse working in the military hospitals in the south of England, Kitty sees at close hand the effects of war - notably the casualties of Dunkirk. The diary details the historical events and describes the day to day life of a young VAD in a military hospital in WWII. It's also a story about growing up. A girl transposed from a comfortable protected existence into the harsher world of a wartime hospital begins to learn a bit about life and relationships.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   3 of 5 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars War Nurse, 6 Jul 2006 By  Catherine "Catherine" (England) - See all my reviews This book was exceptionally good and is now one of my favourites. It is about a woman called Kitty and her life as a nurse in WW2. It is v. good and allows you to get inside Kitty's head and be with her, whatever she is doing. Read it.
