When Joanna Foat first heard about Britain's forgotten Lumberjills, she had no idea their extraordinary stories would change the course of her life.
Joanna Foat has spent fifteen years uncovering the extraordinary stories of Britain's forgotten Lumberjills – and turning their real-life adventures into compelling historical fiction.
Her fascination began while working for the Forestry Commission, when she discovered the remarkable women who had worked in Britain's forests during the Second World War. Since then, she has met more than 60 surviving Lumberjills, recorded their memories and brought their courage, humour and camaraderie to life in novels filled with friendship, romance, secrets and wartime drama.
Joanna is also the author of two non-fiction books about the Women's Timber Corps, has curated exhibitions for Forestry England, appeared on BBC television and radio, and delivered more than 200 talks.
She continues to champion these extraordinary women, ensuring their stories are never forgotten.
