The Home Front Volume II
Index
Index
This index covers both volumes of The Home Front. The complete text is covered, excepting the Preface and Foreword, and individual captions for illustrations.
All proper names of individuals are indexed, except where these are used only to symbolise a country (eg, ‘Hitler invades Czechoslovakia’) or organisation (eg, Sidney Holland for the National Party), or goverment policy, or where they appear only in footnotes.
In most cases where there is more than one reference to an individual, the first reference gives biographical notes.
