Happy New year all! I am very pleased to announce releasing my next publication! Women at War is an inspirational book by local Kinross-shire author Andrew Burnett. I wanted to publish this book as the women in this story were a personal inspiration to me. This book started out as a video project. Andrew took his camera and recorded all these women on tape to preserve their stories so that what they did and their names would not be lost in time. I owe these women for what they did, fighting for their country so that we can enjoy the freedom we have today in Great Britain. Andrew donated this footage to the Burntisland Museum of Communication in Fife so that visitors can watch the interviews and listen to these women tell their stories. We decided to bring out their stories in book format too,as another avenue of preserving their life experiences.
I personally was inspired by this manuscript as to me, these women demonstrated 3 virtues that a human needs to live a balanced life – they had a sense of meaning, purpose and connection. They were fighting for their country and this was the motivation. These women were happy and living life to the full. In a recent conversation, Andrew mentioned that one of the German Prisoners of war had said that living and working in Britain was the best time of his life. So today’s generation can take a leaf out of this book. With Anxiety, stress, depression at pandemic levels, people who read this book may be inspired to find their path, find that sense of spiritual connection, searching for their purpose and meaning. If you don’t know where to turn, first find the inspiration, and you’ll find this book on Amazon.
