This book combines curriculum study of women on the home front with local history and looks at local evidence of women's roles in wartime. The topics include the armed forces, housewives, hosts, factory workers, women's land army, and the voluntary services. It is one of a series and aims to encourage those doing local history projects to search the local library and record office for evidence, to find clues in old newspapers, adverts, letters and reports and to try to interview important witnesses. A cartoon bloodhound directs use of local resources and sets puzzles and tasks. The book is also intended for literacy training as it uses many text forms: newspapers, reports, adverts, letters, censuses, logbooks, interviews, instructions and propaganda.
