In the spring of 1941 she began the filming of "BRITAIN AT WAR" and was granted the necessary facilities by the combatant Services and other State and municipal authorities. In the months that followed she saw more of the War effort in this country than any other amateur photographer, and the film is the most comprehensive colour picture of Britain in War-time that has been produced. Many coloured plates accompany the letter-press, simply and effectively told by Miss Newman. N° de ref. del artículo 7279
