Remembering songs from the radio, from dance bands and music halls, from the popular films of the period, and from the ENSA tours that took British entertainers to the troops, this book aims to recapture the spirit of the World War II years through their music and songs. It is tied to a BBC Television film and contains biographical details of the entertainers, as well as information about the songs they made famous, including the lyrics. The songs have nostalgia value for the generation that lived through the war and resonance for younger generations, to whom many of them are familiar through films and commercials. The illustrations include photographs, sheet-music covers, advertisements, newspaper and magazine headlines, and newspaper cartoons.
