Lancashire - 1939-1945 - The Secret War

Ref: CSB-9338

To defend the country, a secret army was formed from local anglers, poachers, gamekeepers, miners, foresters and postmen. Underground hides were built and old caves and mineshafts opened up. Training was given in arms, explosives and general survival and all of this was kept a secret. Meanwhile, other secrets were being kept too.

Ron Freethy’s well-researched book will fascinate and inform all those who took part in the last war and anyone interested in Lancashire’s all-out determination to play an important role in the defeat of the enemy.
