We did not know what to expect, but did our best to be prepared for any eventuality."Told through personal memories with extracts from Dorothy's diaries and articles, this is the extraordinary story of a family living on the Home Front in WickhamCover image shows: laying out road markings for troops and vehicles in preparation for the D-Day landings, with air raid shelter and Wentworth House behind.
