Abstract
Storm Jameson was a prominent novelist and essayist and an active anti-Fascist. Over a long literary career, she published at least forty-five novels, one of which, Company Parade (1933), is set at the end of the First World War. In 1942 she edited a collection of pieces by London writers, London Calling, which was intended to demonstrate that the spirit of Britain had not been extinguished by the Blitz and to serve also as a kind of thank-you to America for its aid during the difficult period of 1940–41.
