Jean Winter
Women’s lives changed dramatically during the Second World War. This heartwarming story follows the fortunes of Jean Winter, a newly qualified teacher from the east end of Glasgow, from what might have been a very normal existence as a married Scottish woman, to something quite different. As the wife of a prisoner of war, Jean decides to join the Wrens rather than teaching.
