Victoria Panton Bacon
VICTORIA PANTON BACON is a Second World War historian who uses her writing to portray the human cost of war. Her writing career began when she discovered her grandfather’s war memoir in his garage; this would later be published as Six Weeks of Blenheim Summer (Penguin, 2018). Her second book, Remarkable Journeys of the Second World War (The History Press, 2020), was described as ‘fascinating and touching’ by Joanna Lumley. In 2011 Victoria co-founded Elizabeth’s Legacy of Hope, a charity that provides amputee children in Africa and India with prosthetic limbs and education. She lives in Suffolk with her family.
