“ German Invasion Plans for the British Isles” is the book to which Hitler’s generals turned when they planned Operation Sea Lion in 1940. Using one of the only surviving copies found by the Allied forces as they invaded Berlin in 1945
- & subsequently acquired by the Bodleian library
- this is the first time this material has been translated & edited to make a single volume. For years, German military intelligence quietly compiled a dossier of information on Britain. When Hitler gave his generals the order to begin planning a full-scale invasion of Britain in 1940, they were unnervingly prepared. True to form, the intelligence was exhaustive & astonishingly detailed, with every conceivable (and indeed inconceivable) statistic of use to an invading army, together with an analysis of the military significance of each region & aerial photographs & maps of strategic sites.

The only part of the British Isles that can answer the question ' What was it like to be invaded & occupied in World War 2?' are the holiday islands of Jersey, Alderney, Guernsey & Sark. Left undefended in 1940, they fell like ripe plums into German hands. Thereafter they were turned into the most heavily defended parts of the Nazi Atlantic Wall, with massive fortifications, gun emplacements & underground storage tunnels.
