My names Cameron Wolfe. I have a little bit of sense. I dont have much sense. My older brother Ruben gets me into plenty of trouble. I get Rube into as much trouble as he gets me into. I have a family yes that doesnt really function without tomato sauce. Thats me. Cameron & Ruben Wolfe are brothers. They spend most of their time throwing one-handed boxing matches (they only have the one pair of gloves) & plotting to rob the local dentists. But what Cameron really wants is to meet a girl
- a real girl not like the ones in the lingerie magazines. But who could ever love an underdog like Cameron Wolfe?

Stephen Smith uncovers the secrets of the city by walking through sewers tunnels under such places as Hampton Court ghost tube stations & long lost rivers such as the Fleet & the Tyburn.

Books on the history of fortifications are plentiful. Medieval castles the defensive systems of the seventeenth eighteenth & nineteenth centuries the trenches & bunkers of the First World War the great citadels of the Second World War
- all these have been described in depth. But the fortifications of the Cold War
- the hidden forts of the nuclear age
- have not been catalogued & studied in the same way. Paul Ozorak's Underground Structures of the Cold War: The World Below fills the gap. After the devastation caused by the atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima & Nagasaki & the outbreak of the Cold War all over the world shelters were constructed deep underground for civilians government leaders & the military. Wartime structureswere taken over & adapted & thousands of men went to work drilling new tunnels & constructing bunkers of every possible size. At the height of the Cold War in some countries an industry of bunker-makers profited from the public's fear of annihilation. Paul Ozorak describes when & where these bunkers were built & records what has become of them. He explains how they would have been used if a nuclear war had broken out & in the case of weapons bases he shows how these weapons wouldhave been deployed. His account covers every sort of facility
- public shelters missile sites command & communication centres storage depots hospitals.A surprising amount of information has appeared in the media about these places since the end of the Cold War & Paul Ozorak's book takes full advantage of it.

This is the first part of a planned four-volume series focusing on a hitherto largely neglected aspect of the Great War on the Western Front
- the war underground. The subject has fascinated visitors to the battlefields from the very beginning of battlefield pilgrimages in the years immediately after the Armistice & locations such as Hill 60 & the Grange Subway at Vimy have always been popular stops on such tours.

Each book in the series has a short description of the formation & development of Tunneling Companies in the BEF & a glossary of technical terms.
