Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 208pp/illus/maps/diagrams. The story of the flying bomb and rocket attacks on Great Britain and parts of the Continent during the summer of 1944 is examined properly here for the first time. Also revealed is the way the Robot Age was conceived long before Hitler's Germany, and how the final realization made possible a new Battle of Britain. The work of the Royal Observer Corps, the fire brigades, the police and the Salvation Army is recounted here, with that of the RAF, already stretched to support the Normandy landings. Clean.
