Rosemary Ackland began writing her diary in 1945 aged just fifteen. For the next fifty-eight years through happiness and heartache she continued to write. Even after the tragic onset of Motor Neurone disease which left her mute and immobile her diary was still an outlet - in fact then more than ever.
Her simple heartfelt jottings were never intended for an audience. But during her last days as he helped her hold a pen her husband Joss read her words for the first time. Deeply moved by her lifetime's recollections he asked her consent to publish them and she agreed.
My Better Half and Me weaves together Rosemary's diaries with Joss's commentary to tell of an extraordinary love story that lasted over fifty years. Their life together was remarkably full. At first they lived on a shoestring struggling to bring up their new family on just Joss's payas a young actor. Once his career took off their lives became a dynamic whirl of tours across the country. But they remained an extremely close-knit family with lives shaped by their seven children by the tragic untimely death of their eldest son and later by the birth of their grandchildren.
Above all this intimate and candid story shows how lucky they were to have each other. In turbulent times they were each other's rock. Theirs was truly and old-fashioned romance.
