Books, Manuscripts
The Second World War transformed British society. Men, women and children inhabited the war in every area of their lives, from their clothing and food to schools, workplaces and wartime service. This transformation affected the landscapes, towns and cities as factories turned to war work, beaches were prepared as battlefields and agricultural land became airfields and army camps. Many physical signs of the war have survived to this day, and in this book Gabriel Moshenska explains how archaeology can bring the ruins, relics and historic sites of the war to life.
