Using aerial photo-reconnaissance photographs taken by 542 Squadron within days of the German surrender in May 1945, the author has produced a series of line drawings of every battery or infantry strongpoint in Alderney. Each German position is described noting the surviving emplacements. Also included are maps of the minefields, tunnels and underground telephone system together with plans of all the fortress standard bunkers in the island and their distribution. The 196 page large format book is profusely illustrated with 10 maps, more than 50 plans and 250 photographs (90 colour). A definitive and meticulously researched book. Published October 3rd 2003. |
