great read
I found this book, and the rest in the series, good reads. Having been born in 1944, I did know a little about the WWII bombing raids but did not realize that they went on for hours and hours, day and night. Toward the end of the war, it is no wonder that Ruby felt that she was losing her mind. The lack of sleep alone would have done that. On top of that, being afraid 24 X 7 must have been unbareable. Although Ruby was a lady, she was an ordinary wife and mother in a working class community. If you want to know what it was like in war time London then read this book, it will probably give you the best view from the street, where it all happened.
