Description
The Timber Girls by Rosie Archer is a heartwarming saga set against the backdrop of World War II. In 1942, Trixie Smith feels unfulfilled in her role, but when she sees an advertisement for the Women's Timber Corps, she decides to take action. She embarks on a journey to Scotland for four weeks of training, where she meets fellow Lumberjills who have their own reasons for signing up. Trixie quickly forms friendships with her new companions, each with their own story to tell. As they work together in all weathers, felling trees and hauling timber, Trixie finds herself drawn to an American soldier on leave. Their brief encounter leaves a lasting impression, but the reality of training is hard work. Despite the challenges, Trixie finds solace in her new friendships and the sense of purpose she's found in the Women's Timber Corps. This poignant tale explores the lives of women during wartime, their struggles and triumphs, and the bonds that form in the face of adversity.
