Description
The third volume of the history of air war: Africa, Zeppelin Air Raids on Britain, the Western Front and more
This magnificent appraisal of the aerial war during the First World War by H. A. Jones (1893-1945) continues in volume 3, beginning with a riveting account of the activities of the RFC and RNAS in German East and South-West Africa during 1914-16. These 'side-show' theatres of the war are of perennial interest to students of the period by virtue of their peculiar conditions and exotic locations. Rarely has so much valuable material about this singular aspect of those campaigns been gathered together. This is followed by a fascinating account, and an excellent resource for British local history enthusiasts, that recounts in detail the Zeppelin air raids on Britain from the perspective of the German raiders, those who suffered their deprivations and those who sought to foil them from the ground and in the air. The third volume of this essential Leonaur series concludes with the air war as it was fought over the Western Front. Particular focus is given to the battles of the winter of 1916-17 and especially to the Battle of Arras, 1917.
Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
