Julie Hankey
With Damn This War!, Julie Hankey completes a trio of family histories based on a large cache of letters and photographs reaching back several generations. The first of these was A Passion for Egypt, a biography of her archaeologist grandfather who worked in Egypt before the 1914-18 war. Out of that grew Kisses & Ink, largely about the Victorian and Edwardian women in the family. Damn This War! tightens the focus onto the author's parents and brings the story up to the end of Second World War and its aftermath.
