To War with Whitaker: Wartime Diaries of the Countess of Ranfurly, 1939-45 | Hermione Ranfurly

2 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 4 to read

When World War II broke out, Dan Ranfurly was dispatched to the Middle East with his faithful valet, Whitaker. These are the diaries of his young wife, Hermione, who, defying the War Office, raced off in hot pursuit of her husband. When Dan was taken prisoner, Hermione vowed never to return home until they were reunited. For six years, travelling alone from Cape Town to Palestine, and meeting such charismatic characters as Churchill, Eisenhower, and a parrot called Coco on the way, she kept her promise.

When her husband is posted to the Middle East during WWII, newlywed Hermione cannot bear to be far away from him so she travels in his wake, attaching herself to the staff of one of the British Generals. It's a true story, fascinating in its detail of life amongst those commanding the troops and touching in its portrayal of the bond between this couple. As she puts it, "heaven is being together".
