During the Second World War Birmingham suffered 365 air raid alerts
and 77 actual air raids. These raids took place between the 8th
August 1940 and the 23rd April 1943. There were over 9,000
casualties of whom 2,241 were killed. This book contains the first
hand accounts of some of those who survived. The Memorial shown on
the front cover "The Tree of Life" by Lorenzo Quinn is dedicated to
the memory of all victims of the Blitz on Birmingham. The memorial
was donated to the City of Birmingham by the Halcyon Gallery on
behalf of its founders Racna and Lionel Green, in association with
Birmingham City Council and Birmingham Air Raids Remembrance
Association.
