About this product
Product Information
'We shall go out and bomb every building in Britain marked with three stars in the Baedeker Guide' the German Foreign Office announced in April 1942 as the Luftwaffe attacked Exeter, Bath, Norwich, York and Canterbury. Over a thousand people died. These raids were direct retaliation for RAF raids on equally historic German cities. Hitler had ordered that 'Preference is to be given... where attacks are likely to have the greatest possible effect on civilian life' and in this narrow aim as Jan Gore shows in the first full history of the raids to be published for over twenty years they certainly succeeded. She explains the Luftwaffe's tactics, the types of bombs that were used high explosive, parachute mines and incendiaries and records the devastating damage they caused. Her main focus is on the effect of the bombing on the ground. In graphic detail she describes the air raid precautions, the role of the various civil defence organisations and the direct experience of the civilians. Their recollections many of which have not been published before as well as newspaper articles and official reports give us a vivid impression of the raids themselves and their immediate aftermath. Jan Gore's original and painstaking research provides the fullest insight yet into the impact of this bombing campaign on Britain's home front during the Second World War. AUTHOR: Jan Gore is a researcher, writer and lecturer who has compiled biographies of those who died (both civilians and military) during the Second World War in Bournemouth and Exmouth as well as in the V1 attack on the Guards' Chapel in London. In the past she has worked for GCHQ and Chatham House and has been a civil servant and librarian. She now lectures in French at Kingston University. Her most recent publication is Send More Shrouds: The V1 Attack on the Guards' Chapel 1944. 50 b/w illustrations

My bible arrived today. I’m very happy with it. It’s better in real life than in the pictures. It was well packaged in protective cardboard packaging. The bible itself is hardback with a glossy removable paper cover. It also came in a cardboard sleeve which protects it if you are moving around with it eg if you take your bible to church every Sunday, the corners won’t get damaged because it is in a cardboard sleeve. I will get another one for my daughter. It arrived quickly - it is C5 size
