Britain under German bombardment is a topic associated with World War II, but in fact the Germans launched major bombing raids against populated areas of the United Kingdom in World War I, all the more terrifying because they were the first of their kind. Zeppelins launched scattered raids even in the first months of the war. The years 1917-1918 saw a more concerted effort with improved dirigibles and large biplane bombers. Pilots of the Royal Naval Air Service took to the skies for nightmarish battles against the attackers with primitive weapons and navigational aids. This is the most detailed account of this air campaign ever written, containing much previously unknown information.
