{"product_id":"9781468904901","title":"A Lady of Letters: Life according to Jane Allberry, 1938 - 1947","description":"This is the true story of a young girl, Jane Allberry, who met the man who was destined to be her husband in 1935.  It is the story of how they eventually married and spent their early married lives in war-torn Britain, produced three children and eventually emigrated to Western Australia in 1947. By virtue of a tattered shoe-box full of old letters written by Jane to her family during those epic years, the story of their young lives was revealed.  In the more than 200 letters she wrote home to Australia from the UK, Jane’s expert narrative gives a very detailed description of the joys and difficulties of life in the UK during the second World War, together with some amusing tales of some of the things that happened during that time and some of the grimmer aspects of living in a country at war. The story is told by the inclusion of some of the more descriptive passages from her letters as well as some additional explanations.   It is the story of a young girl who grew into an efficient housekeeper, a loving wife and a very capable mother.  Of how she built a family held together by a mortar of love and kindness. The story ends at the time of their emigration to Australia, but it continued anew from there along an entirely different track with new adventures and experiences along the way.","brand":"Booktango","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181277659376,"sku":"9781468904901","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781468904901_p0.jpg?v=1763696940","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781468904901","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
