Title: Cold War: Building for Nuclear Confrontation 1946-1989
Description: English Heritage, 2003. First Edition, Hardcover. Fine Condition. 9781873592694 Firmly bound, clean unmarked pages, slight handling marks to boards. A well-kept copy. This well-researched, well-written and well-illustrated book represents the single most complete description and appraisal of the UK's Cold War structures so far available. It covers not only those buildings still in existence but also those since demolished. The scope includes all forms of bunkers, airfield structures, related radars, communications structures, administrative buildings, observer stations, and industrial structures. It starts out with a brief but nevertheless excellent history of the Cold War, establishing just the right context for what is to follow. It then proceeds to describe, with sensible chapter groupings, what was built when, where, how it was used, and (in most cases) its current state. It is lavishly illustrated with diagrams, contemporary photos, and present day photos. (Reader review) 288 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Military & Warfare; ISBN/EAN: 9781873592694. Inventory No: dscf11136.
