I only joined for the hat:
Lamb, Christian
I only joined for the hat: redoubtable Wrens at war, their trials, tribulations and triumphs - Bene Factum 2007 - xv, 207 p.
Includes index
Lamb wittily describes how class and snobbery had no place in a world of girls from all social backgrounds, suddenly plunged into a life together of scrubbing floors, squad drill, coding and catering. A sprightly octogenarian, this is Lamb's second book, her first being 'From the Ends of the Earth'.
