Judith Middleton Bücher

How the experience of war impacted on the town, from the initial enthusiasm for sorting out the German kaiser in time for Christmas 1914, to the gradual realization of the enormity of human sacrifice the families of Hove and Portslade were committed to.

This book looks at the lives of the women from Hove and Portslade, ranging from artists, musicians, writers, performers, pioneering doctors and business- women to those employed in factories, shops, laundries and as domestic servants.
