And although the destruction of 1940 - 1 was never repeated on the same scale fears that Hitler possessed a secret weapon of mass destruction never entirely died and were partially realized in the VI and V 2 raids of 1944 - 5. The British and American response to the Blitz' especially from 1943 onwards was massive and incomparably more devastating - with apocalyptic consequences for German cities such as Hamburg Dresden and Berlin to name but the most prominent. In this ground - breaking new book German historian Dietmars ss investigates the effects of the bombing on both Britain and Nazi Germany showing how these two very different societies sought to withstand the onslaught and keep up morale amidst the material devastation and psychological trauma that was visited upon them. And as he reflects in the conclusion this is not a story that is safely confined to the past: the debate over the rights and the wrongs of the mass bombing of British and German cities during World War II remains a highly emotional subject even today.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Death From The Skies How The British And Germans Survived Bombing In World War Ii\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Suss Dietmar (Professor In Modern History University Of Augsburg)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780199668519\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 736 Pages, 9 Black And White In-Text Half-Tones\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 4\/1\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Air Forces \u0026amp; Warfare","brand":"Suss Dietmar (Professor In Modern History University Of Augsburg)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51332971790641,"sku":"IN-G-9780199668519","price":65.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780199668519.jpg?v=1753225044","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780199668519-death-from-the-skies-how-the-british-and-germans-survived-bombing-in-world-war-ii","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
