| Description: |
London under attack |
| Synopsis: |
London has been under attack for literally centuries. London Under Attack charts the military history of the capital from Roman times until the Second World War.Throughout this period London was at the centre of hostilities, not always instigated by foreign enemies, but more often from its own inhabitants or those from other parts of Britain.As well as the terrible Blitz on London during the Second World War, earlier conflicts which made an impact on the city are also documented, including the Civil Wars of twelfth and seventeenth centuries, the war between King John and the barons, uprisings against the poll tax, the uprising against Queen Mary's marriage to Philip of Spain, the Gordon Riots, the riots and deaths at the funeral of Queen Caroline in the nineteenth century and numerous other uprisings and conflicts that have mainly been forgotten in the twenty-first century.London Under Attack is a must-read for all those interested in military history as well as the turbulent history of our nation's capital. |
