The complete set of letters between two British lovers, separated by the war
http://www.west-london.freeserve.co.uk/OliveandEric/indexmain.html
From North Africa to Leicester, transcribed 60 years later by their son -- a lovely site, to be sure. They were found when Eric passed away in the late 1980's, just a few years after his wife, Olive. A quote from Olive: "Let's hope this war will soon be over for I for one have had just about enough of it. I little thought what it would mean to us. Do you remember that night after Chamberlain had been to Munich and I said then it worried me that there should be a war little knowing that we should be separated by the beastly thing. "
