Wow. Strong words from the character of Nora! Dressed as a man, she finds more success, and her sister the Queen is congratulating her. But why is Nora so bitter? Get yourself wrapped in the loop. Many of us are dedicated to our family secrets. They stay in a small circle. But someone might not hold their tongue for much longer. #PalaceCoup #DressedAsAMan #HistoryOfWar #HistoricalDrama #HistoricalNature #MilitaryCampaign #PromotedToCaptain #ThisIsTheArmyMrJones #CivilWar #TwoDifferentLands #NorthAndSouth #KingdomRights #MedievalWorld #WomensHistory #AWomansWar #Suffergettes #WomensRightsMovement #NarcissistFamily #CourtLife #RoyalFamily #TwoSisters #BraveAndTrue #Braveheart #LocalAuthor #NewBritain https://www.instagram.com/p/Chmr0msOh2S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I wrote many letters to my then fiancé while we were continents apart before we were married and during the first Gulf war, but endured nothing like #FrancesDonaldson during her 6 year separation from her husband during #WW2 when she bought and learned to successfully run a farm! It was a honor to voice her letters in #AWomansWar Coming Soon to #Audible #farming #farmlife https://www.instagram.com/p/BwneH24HNK3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13xkpxpf07ifq

What makes a 1930s society girl become a farmer? Answer: the Second World War. I was privileged to narrate the story of the author's mother, Frances Donaldson, a privileged young woman giving her all in wartime. With her soldier husband, Jack, far away and two young children to care for, she bought a farm in Warwickshire and determined to live off it. Could an emotionally fragile young mother survive the ordeal? During six long years of war she learned to farm, battling with the antagonism of the men she was trying to manage, vulnerable to the demands of the Ministry of Agriculture while coping with small children and no money. War was a test of relationships, character, and endurance. A Woman's War tells how she conquered WWII. An emotional tale from riches to rags, from joy to sorrow, and, at the end of the war together again with Jack, rejoicing. Frances Donaldson would not have called herself a feminist, but her strong character, independence, and determination make this almost a feminist tract, showing in detail how much a woman can achieve in difficult circumstances. She not only showed determination but took on physical tasks which most modern men would find difficult if not impossible.  Now Available on #Amazon, #Audible and #iTunes! #audiobooks #farming #farmer #ww2 #rations #farmgirl #motherhood #strongwomen #depression #buyafarm #voiceover #VO #Britishaccent #narration #listentoabook #tellmeastory #letters #letterwriting #AWomansWar #FrancesDonaldson #rosedeakin @theaudioflow https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx4sbQ1ngWL/?igshid=1l64kmlzz9war
