The threat of nuclear attack changed the face of warfare and the early 1950s witnessed a massive and hugely expensive, building programme. Even today, the vast majority of people are unaware of the scale and location of these sites. Nick McCamley uncovers the facts which describe the vast umbrella of radar stations. Interesting and shocking comparisons are made about the provision (or lack of it) for the survival of the general population between the USA, UK and other countries.
Nick McCamley was born at Bradford-on-Avon, in 1950. Always passionately interested in local history and industrial archaeology, his accidental stumbling upon the remains of Corsham Ammunitions Depot in 1967 resulted in a research project that became a thirty year obsession. Secret Cold War Nuclear Bunkers is the revealing and dramatic sequel to Nick McCamleys highly successful 'Secret Underground Cities'.
