{"product_id":"9781841767673","title":"British Home Defences 1940-45","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the summer of 1940, Britain asked itself not 'will Hitler invade?' but 'when?' SEALION, the German invasion plan, provoked the construction of pillboxes, coastal defences, heavy-gun emplacements and anti-aircraft batteries, as well as the formation of the Home Guard and covert groups. Later, new dangers replaced SEALION: radar detection systems were expanded during the Blitz years, as were intelligence-gathering systems and listening posts. From 1944, Britain was again faced with a deadly threat, Hitler's 'Vengeance weapons'. This title provides a concise assessment of Britain's defensive systems, and presents a vivid picture of war on the home front.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Osprey Publishing, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47050672275696,"sku":"9781841767673","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781841767673_p0.jpg?v=1763740685","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781841767673","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
