Life at home in Britain during the Second World War changed forever. Aerial bombardment destroyed families and homes in their thousands. Men and women worked harder than ever before in factories, as air-raid wardens, and in simply keeping day-to-day life going. Children found themselves evacuated far away from home. Meanwhile, the government exercised unprecedented control over everyday needs and concerns. In the face of all this adversity the Blitz spirit of defiant resilience was born, and its memory has endured right up to the present time.


Guy de la Bidoyhre is a writer, historian and archaeologist. He has written numerous books on aspects of Roman Britain, and on the archaeology of the air war of 193945, including Shire's Aviation Archaeology in Britain and Pottery in Roman Britain. Other titles for Shire by this author are:

Architecture in Roman Britain
Aviation Archaeology in Britain
Pottery in Roman Britain
