The industry of Glasgow and the Clyde, conscious of its contribution to the war effort, expected to be a target of Hitler's bombers, but few predicted the ferocity of attack in the raids of March, April and May 1941. During those fateful days, whole families were wiped out, entire streets disappeared and vast areas were flattened by wave after wave of Luftwaffe planes dropping high explosive and incendiary bombs. Illustrated by archive film and photographs, this is the story of life under the bombs as recalled by the people who fought on the home front and lived to tell the tale.
