RAF Portreath, Cornwall UK

For those interested in RAF Portreath in Cornwall this new wartime account may be of interest. It is more than just your traditional RAF base history as it sets the aerodrome in its community and covers subjects like the anti-invasion defences, the Home Guard, air raids, etc. Details on the link below:

Re: RAF Portreath, Cornwall UK

Hi Bombphoon, I have some sympathy for your opinion preferring a real book in my hands but unfortunately economics at this time mean that an approx 400 page book is not viable, so it is currently only available as an eBook.
