The British and German World War II big guns duelled with each other and harried shipping in the Channel for the first time ever. This battle lasted four years and involved huge artillery guns attempting to destroy each other, creating psychological terror among the local inhabitants living near the coast, and harassing shipping. Neil Short examines the array of powerful weapons located across the Strait of Dover, including fixed gun batteries, railway artillery, and construction and targeting technology used by each side. The locations of all the major sites around Dover and Calais are pinpointed on easy to follow maps.
