Description

The Blitz Then and Now by Winston G. Ramsey provides a detailed record of the first year of World War II, from September 3rd, 1939 to September 6th, 1940. This period saw a shift from the initial air raid warnings to the threat of total war, with Hitler vowing to raze Britain's cities to the ground. The book draws on extracts from the Ministry of Home Security's 24-hour log, offering a contemporary diary of events as they affected the Home Front. It also lists every German crash on land, along with crew details and photographs of interesting discoveries at crash sites that have been investigated or excavated since the end of the war. Articles by historians and eyewitnesses add to the narrative, providing insight into the changing climate of hostilities during this critical period in British history.
