Title: Testament of experience
First published: 1957
Description: In *Testament of Youth*, one of the most famous and best loved autobiographies of the First World War, Very Brittain wrote both a heartbreaking record of those agonizing years and a loving memorial to a genereation destroyed by war. In this sequel, she continues the story of those who survived.

Once again Vera Brittain interlaces private experience with the wide sweep of public events. Personal happiness in marriage and the birth of children, pride in her work as writer and campaigner are set against the fears, frustrations and achievements of the years 1925-1950. The depression, the growth of Nazism, the peace movements of the 'thirties, the Abdication, the Spanish Civil War, the horror and heroism of the Second World War come alive again through the eyes of this remarkable woman, herself a testament to all that is best in the times she lived through.
