About this product

Product Information

From its south-eastern tip Sussex is little more than sixty miles from continental Europe and the county's coastline, some seventy-six miles long, occupies a large part of Britain's southern frontier. Before the days of Macadam and the Turnpike, water travel could prove more certain than land transportation and the seas that define the borders of our nation aided, rather than deterred, the invader. Though the last successful invasion of Britain took place almost 1,000 years ago, the gently shelving beaches of Sussex have tempted the prospective invader with the promise of both an easy disembarkation and a short and direct route to London - the last time being just seven decades ago. As the authors demonstrate, the repeated threat of invasion from the Continent has shaped the very landscape of the county. The rounded tops of the Iron Age hill forts, the sheer walls of the medieval castles, the squat stumps of Martello towers, the moulded Vaubanesque contours of the Palmerstone redoubts and the crouched concrete blocks and bricks of the Second World War pillboxes constitute the visible evidence of Sussex's position on Britain's front line. AUTHOR: Martin Mace has been involved in writing and publishing military history for more than twenty years. He established Historic Military Press, which has published a wide range of titles. In 2006 he began working on the idea for Britain at War Magazine; the first issue of which went on sale in May 2007. This publication has grown rapidly to become the best selling military history periodical on the high street, and also sells in countries around the world. John Grehan has written or contributed to more than sixty books, magazines and journals covering a large span of military history form the Iron Age to the present war in Afghanistan. ILLUSTRATIONS: 80 b/w images & maps
