The Battle of Britain and the Atlantic and the Blitz are invariably the focus of books and perceptions of the air war over and around Britain during the Second World War. Yet, it was Britain’s more exposed eastern flank, from the South Foreland in the south to Bridlington in the north that faced nearly six years of unrelenting attacks by the Luftwaffe, the Kriegsmarine and, amazingly, the Corpo Aereo Italiano based in Belgium. The Italians alone launched some 150 raids on England hitting Great Yarmouth, Clacton, Harwich, Deal, Ramsgate and a host of other targets.

This book chronicles the air war around the east coast as its principle focus but also incorporate the joint operations mounted by both the Allies and the Axis forces. It looks at the preparations for invasion, the defense of vital convoys, the air defenses, the coastal blitz, ship and crew rescue and crucial docks and shipyards. With so much attention paid to the south coast, the air war over the east coast was often fought on a shoestring although it was the coast that lay closest to Germany. It was not a war of vast fleets of warships and submarines, it was conflict staged by aircraft and smaller raiding craft. It also saw the biggest mine-laying campaign in history and the largest battle fought between Axis E Boats and Allied Motor Torpedo Boats. As the tide turned in Britain’s favor, the east coast became the staging post of the great bomber offensives against enemy occupied Europe and Germany itself. Yet the raiding and attacks on the east coast continued culminating in air-launched V1 attacks and finally V2 strikes.

Air War over the Nore

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2011

An author contact of mine protested about this book soon after it came out. It is a bad case of plagiarism. Mr Sutherland and (Ms?) Canwell have lifted material, text, appendices and many photos, from 3 other writers, then passed the work off as their own. With the possible (?) exception of the Norwich air raid all the air raid material has come from books by Messrs Boywer, Foynes and Gustavsson. All 5 appendices were copied almost totally verbatim. Crazily, the authors have even replicated the statistical and date errors of those they've copied.
The authors seem to think "the Nore" refers to all of wartime Eastern England, land and sea, yet within that compass they omit major aspects.
A very poor piece of "work" indeed.
Please do not help these authors, who continue to produce books in the same shoddy way--on just about every subject there is.
Their original background seems to be in childrens' story books and textbooks, if you check out the earlier of the 200 books they have written in the last decade, at the ratre of one every few weeks!
