Churches, hospitals, historic buildings and the homes of ordinary people had been destroyed, but London's heart was still beating strongly. Tall buildings still rose in the sky, people and traffic still crowded the pavements and roads of the greatest city in the world. Then the Americans arrived...The US War Department said this when they came to Britain in 1942: 'British women have proved themselves in this war. They have stuck to their posts near burning ammunition dumps, delivered messages on foot after their motor-cycles have been blasted from under them.

Women Migrants from East to West

Publishing date: 2010
Based on the oral histories of eighty migrant women and thirty additional interviews with 'native' women in the 'receiving' countries, this volume documents the contemporary phenomenon of the feminisation of migration through an exploration of the lives of women, who have moved from Bulgaria and Hungary to Italy and the Netherlands.

Part I is a largely conceptual exploration of subjectivity, mobility and gender in Europe. The chapters in Part II focus on love, work, home, communication, and food, themes which emerged
