A brilliant book of true stories of love and loss during WWII from the tough northern women who kept the foundry fires burning.' Bella Magazine When war broke out, the young women of Sheffield had their lives turned upside down. With their sweethearts off fighting, they had no choice but become the backbone of the city's steel industry and ensure that their soldiers had the weapons, planes and ships needed to secure victory over Hitler.When the men returned from the front in 1945, many of these women tragically found themselves discarded 'like yesterday's fish and chip wrappers'. But decades later, a grassroots campaign spearheaded by the elderly Women of Steel finally brought their remarkable story to light.Women of Steel is the last chance to hear these unsung heroines' voices, as they share first-hand how a group of plucky young women rallied together to win the war for Britain.
