Following work recently brought into sharper focus by the Defence
of Britain Project, this is the first extensive overview of the
military structures of the twentieth century, combining both
documentary and fieldwork research. The book presents details of
all those elements of the landscape, both urban and rural, which
have resulted from the need to defend against conflict - actual or
threatened. Defending Britain explains both the form and purpose of
structures such as anti-invasion defences, airfields, naval
installations and barracks, munitions dumps and firing ranges, Cold
War bunkers and radar sites, factories and stores, all of which are
well illustrated. The final section provides the reader with a
comprehensive gazetteer of surviving examples to visit throughout
Britain.
