YANK BOMBER BOYS IN NORFOLK: A PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORD OF THE USAAF IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR
Written by Peter W. Bodle.
Stock no. 1825375
Published by Fonthill Media Limited.
1st
2014.
Nearly fine condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper.
During the Second World War thousands of American servicemen were uprooted from the USA and deposited in rural England and almost immediately thrust into the front line of the biggest war the world had ever seen. Fortunately, many of them had remembered to pack their own small cameras in their kitbags and they simply carried on 'snapping' their everyday lives as the war unfolded. This book has collected together over 400 of these personal photographs to produce a unique flavour of life in and around these airbase plots of 'Little America in Norfolk'. Black cloth boards. Gilt title to spine. B/w photos throughout. ISBN: 9781781553558. A nice copy.
