PRODUCT DETAILS
Description
An engrossing tour of over 30 top secret locations around the British Isles which were once vital parts of the Allied struggle to defeat Nazi Germany in the Second World War. Discover wild landscapes and coastlines; seemingly sleepy suburbs and stately homes; underground factories, tunnels and hidden bunkers, all of which took on a host of mysterious functions during the War; many still classified under the Official Secrets Act until 1975. From the boffins at Bletchley Park to the SOE training grounds as Arisaig in Scotland, a lively guide to secret and silent sites which played a key role in the war effort. Descriptive chapters explore the history of the sites, the exploits of the men and women who worked in secrecy and includes practical tips to see the locations, where possible, in their current state.
