Scotland's Land Girls: Breeches, Bombers and BackachesPaperback, 16 January 2011

The roots of the Women's Land Army (WLA) lie in the First World War: an acute labour shortage ensued when rural workers were called up for military service, so the WLA filled the void. This book examines the role of the WLA in both World Wars, as well as recalling the tales and anecdotes of the so-called 'landgirls'.
