Description

Bringing together different strands of history to present a compelling picture of aviation in Norfolk and Suffolk. In this book Peter Gunn brings together many aspects of aviation history in the two counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, chronicled by place-name in alphabetical order. Subjects include airfields, war graves and memorials but also the less obvious aeronautical connections in, for example, country houses, churches, pubs, buildings, streets, and the local stories linked with them. The narrative incorporates descriptions with illustrations and OS grid references and a full index. These counties are bursting with aviation history, having played key roles across two world wars, and this detailed guide will delight both interested locals and aviation enthusiasts. AUTHOR: Peter B. Gunn was a lecturer in History (Further Education College) and since 1990, a professional indexer of books and journals. He gives regular presentations to local societies on aviation history, has self-published four aviation books and wrote Sculthorpe – Secrecy and Stealth for The History Press. He lives in Norfolk. 150 b/w illustrations
