Britain Under Fire: The Blitz on Britain in World War Two

Description

Britain and its civilian population suffered greatly from German air attacks during World War II, both from the conventional air raids of the Battle of Britain and the V1 and V2 rocket attacks late in the war. Most accounts of these actions emphasize the experiences of the military forces. Charles Whiting, one of Europe's most popular military authors, concentrates on the suffering and resistance of Britain's civilian population in this heavily illustrated account, covering both London and the large industrial cities of the North.
