This book compiles diary entries from everyday British people who sent their entries in to the Mass Observation project. Very recommended for showing a human everyday perspective on 1945-1948. One doesn’t agree with everything they write, as they have racial and gender prejudices of the time, but this shows humans aren’t just black or white.
