Synopsis

The threat of nuclear attack changed the face of warfare and the early 1950s witnessed a massive and hugely expensive, building programme. Even today, the vast majority of people are unaware of the scale and location of these sites. Nick McCamley uncovers the facts which describe the vast umbrella of radar stations. Interesting and shocking comparisons are made about the provision (or lack of it) for the survival of the general population between the USA, UK and other countries.
