Lives were changed dramatically throughout the world with the outbreak of the Second World War, most dramatically in Great Britain. This book features more than 800 painstakingly restored photographs from the archives of The Daily Mail, giving a fascinating insight into a time when Britain faced the biggest threat in its history and stood alone against implacable enemies. The photographs and detailed captions record the danger, the deprivation, the devastation, and the loss faced every day, as well as the determination to prevail over all odds. This volume is destined to become a collector's item.
