"Spanning four centuries, from the 1660s to the present day, 'Following the drum' tells the stories of the women who followed their men around the world, sometimes onto the battlefield itself, and went on to become brave, headstrong and positively warlike. Army wives have "followed the drum" to the cholera-ridden valleys of the Crimea, the sweltering plains of the Indian Mutiny, the treacherous Burmese jungle and into the last Gulf War. Drawing on letters, journals and interviews, Annabel Venning pays tribute to the remarkable women who triumphed amidst the blood, battles and brawls."
