I recall watching Call The Midwife with my family and we were fascinated by how life really was do different, not so long ago. This book provides some contextual background to the show and I feel this is good reading for non-UK fans who might not be quite so aware of British culture at this time. The show is based on the best selling books by Jennifer Worth, depicting her time as a midwife and nurse in the East End. This book explores this and delves into how this was explored in the TV series by the cast and crew.
