We Remember the Blitz by Frank & Joan Shaw
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3mb
Overview: On the night of 7 September 1940, bombs rained down on the defenceless and unprepared population of London for nine long hours. In November, raids spread to the rest of the country – starting in Coventry and taking in everywhere from Portsmouth, Cardiff, Belfast and Hull.
During the nine months of the Blitz, thousands of people were killed and injured, and thousands of buildings and homes destroyed. But, with stoicism and humour, life went on.
We Remember the Blitz is packed with vivid recollections from this important time in British history. Waking up in a damp shelter to the sound of bombing. Coming out of a cinema to discover that fires made night as bright as day. And, worst of all, the shock of seeing individuals and whole families killed in an instant. We hear from many who were there to pick up the pieces: ARP wardens, firemen – even the bakers, who would return to work under tarpaulin to ensure their neighbours had their daily loaf.
