In researching my book, The Light Over London, I was continually amazed at the many—often unsung—ways British women contributed during World War II and helped win the war. As I kept reading about these ordinary women rising to the challenge and doing extraordinary things, I realized I wanted to tell their stories.
I call these women The Lightseekers. Below you'll find a growing archive of articles about them. And for more information, you can follow the hashtag #TheLightseekers on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.
