Birds Eye Wartime Leicestershire 1939-1945
by Terence Cartwright


This 56 page book is designed to give a visual representation of all known military activity which occurred in Leicestershire during the second world war. This book contains annotated maps and indexes illustrating the approximate locations of over 1600 high explosive bombs and 1000's of incendiaries which fell in the area.

This book contains 60 previously unpublished Luftwaffe, U.S.A.A.F. and R.A.F. aerial reconnaissance photographs taken between 1939-45 revealing decoy sites, anti-aircraft and searchlight batteries, airfields, factories, etc.
Also included is a section devoted to the Leicester city centre, revealing in great detail the landscape before post war development took place.

Also featured are reproductions of the original Luftwaffe target maps used in the Leicester raid of November 1940 and a selection of original A.R.P. reports covering the bombing of Hinckley and Burbage, Kirby Muxloe, the Vale of Belvoir and other areas in the county.
