After losing the Battle of Britain, the German Luftwaffe switched to night bombing raids in an attempt to defeat British morale. This study examines the causes, effects and outcome of the raids on the civilian population of Britain in 1940-41. The author discusses the German decision to switch to night attacks, their weapons and tactics, the poor initial British defences, and the reactions of the civilian population to the prolonged bombing raids. He also attempts to assess the responsibility for the breach of British defences. He discusses the removal of the commander responsible for defence, political responses, and the effects of the raids on war production. Lastly, the book deals with the retaliation by Bomber Command, and the final attacks. |

Another in this highly respected series which forms a comprehensive guide to fighter aircraft (and many other types) operated by the US Navy and US Marine Corps in the years since World War II. Each is an extensively illustrated guide to markings carried by each unit operating the type in question and has drawings which will be invaluable for both historian and modeller.
The unusual and innovative swing-wing Jaguar program ended up being a one airplane project even though during its development orders were placed for one hundred and twelve aircraft. That ship, Bureau number 124435, would only be flown by one pilot, Corwin "Corky" Meyer. When the program concluded in 1953 after over a year of flight testing, the flight test example 124435 along with the number two ship 124436, which was some 90% complete , were shipped to the Naval Air Material Center, Philadelphia, for use in testing barriers and barricades. The static test article, which was some 60% complete, was shipped to the Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland for use as a target. 49 photos, 6 pages of drawings. |

As this book is intended as a complimentary volume to the already published work American Civil War Infantry, many basic details dealt with in the earlier book are not repeated here, more attention being paid to variations and information peculiar to Cavalry. Thus the reader will often be referred to the Infantry book for further details. In addition to the Cavalry, North and South, information on the Indian units raised by both sides is included. The various early machine-guns employed are also covered. This book is not intended as a guide to the strategy and tactics of the war, nor a military history of its course; it is purely a handbook of information about the men involved, what they wore and the equipment they fought with. The details given concentrate on those which will be of use to the modeller and wargamer and therefore those wishing for more information on the causes and courses of the war are refered to the bibliography at the back of the book. The Southern mounted troops started the war better equipped, with more skill and horses and higher morale than their counterpart in the North. The South was a natural rider's country, and the Rebel cavalry ran rings around the poorly equipped, trained and mounted Federals. However, as the war progressed so the training improved in the North and equipment and horses were replaced. In the South whilst the soldiers may also have improved with experience his equipment and horses were not so easily replaced. Thus slowly the Federal cavalry began to gain the upper hand, eventually reaching a marked superiority over the Southern horsemen. I should like once again to thank my good friend John Robertson of Dundee for his apparently inexhaustable fund of information; Mick Bowling for access to his collection for reference and illustrations, and for his encouragement and advice; and to my wife Paul for her patience. |
