Standard detailed study. "Captain Morris's history is unofficial, but he has had access to a good deal of official information. He gives a careful account of the various raids, the courses taken by the attacking airships or aeroplanes, & the damage done. From the point of view of the defence he devotes almost all his attention to the work of British aircraft & too little to defence by anti-aircraft guns, searchlights, & wire screens supported by balloons. London has quickly forgotten, but it would do well to read this book & ponder what is likely to be its fate in case of another war." - Falls. Orig. maroon cloth, gilt, front board somewhat spotted o/w VG. See illustrations on our website.
