Paperback Summary:
Copyrighted in 1966, 'The Zeppelin Fighters' provides a well-detailed account of German zeppelin operations and the British counters to them. Focusing largely on the North Sea and raids against the UK, it lays out chronologically, raid by raid, the stroke and counter-stroke of British and German actions, charting both the evolution of the zeppelin and the title's namesakes. In addition, there are brief mentions of the amazing East Africa relief mission and of Zeppelin ops in the Baltic, along with a chapter on the British use of large flying boats (Curtiss H-12, Felixstowe, et al) in the anti-Zeppelin role and the use of radio intercept to pinpoint and track zeppelins over the North Sea. Contains a map of the North Sea operations area, 223 pp and no photos.
