What was it like to be a secretary in the 1970s? Drawing on the reminiscences of more than 60 women, this book describes their everyday working lives and vividly recreates their world of typewriters, telephones and Tippex. It compares their experiences with their portrayals in popular media and by feminist writers. What emerges is a more nuanced picture, one that is revealing, authentic and amusing. This is a must for former secretaries and anyone with an interest in social history.
