Présentation de l'éditeur :
On 31st January 1916 nine Zeppelin airships of the Imperial German Navy bombed the Midlands, opening a strategic bombing campaign designed to cripple British war production. It ended in total failure. The main target was Liverpool but none of the Zeppelins reached it. On foggy Monday night several major Midlands towns were bombed and 70 people killed, 35 in the Black Country between Birmingham and Wolverhampton, 15 in Burton on Trent, 10 in Loughborough, 5 in Derby, 3 in Scunthorpe and 2 in Ilkeston. A lot is known about the military aspects of the raids but much less is known about what happened on the ground. While the press produced many human interest stories and atrocity propaganda, wartime censorship prohibited publication of any information that could be useful to the Germans, including the towns hit and names of the victims. Through intensive research the author has been able to identify many of the victims and give the full story of these events for the first time.
Revue de presse :
"Mick Powis explores new sources to highlight the personal side of the story rather than focusing myopically on its military aspects... His highly detailed analysis of the raid should not be missed. It is highly recommended." --Over the Front, Spring 2017
"Mick Powis's meticulous work and unique insights are impressive to a reviewer who has studied the Zeppelin raids for almost 25 years." --World War One Illustrated, Summer 2018
