For the first time ever, compare the British and German World War
II big guns duelling with each other and harrying shipping in the
Channel. One of the longest-running battles of World War II took
place across the English Channel, in which huge artillery guns
attempted to destroy each other, created psychological terror among
the local inhabitants living near the coast, and harassed shipping
over a four-year period. Neil Short examines the array of powerful
weapons located across the Strait of Dover. Superb colour artworks
explore both fixed gun batteries (including 'Jane' and 'Clem', and
batteries Todt and Lindemann) and railway artillery (such as the
German K5 and K12 guns, and the British 18in. 'Boche Buster').
Construction and targeting technology used by each side are also
covered in detail, and the locations of all the major sites around
Dover and Calais are pinpointed on easy to follow maps.
