This session outlines the rhythms and geographies of the Hull Blitz between 1940 and 1945. It draws upon images and documents from the Hull History Centre, plus an outline of how aerial warfare was developed and theorised in the interwar period.
These new materials augment the broader lecture on a connected theme that Professor Atkinson presented in 2016.
