Product details


Product Description

Product Description
Foyle's War has been widely praised for its engaging storylines, admirable performances and also for the painstaking attention to detail that gives the series such an air of authority and authenticity. "The Real History of Foyle's War" goes back to the real events and people that inform the fiction, and with stills from the show interspersed with historical images, provides an intriguing insight into law and order on the home front between 1939 and 1945, offering a wealth of background information on the living and working conditions for ordinary people during that time, on the role of the police in wartime and the crimes on which the plotlines of Foyle's War are based.

About the Author
Rod Green is the author of over 15 other books, including World War II: The People's Story (Reader's Digest), D-Day dossier (Michael O'Mara Books), Churchill dossier (Michael O'Mara Books) and Building the Titanic (Carlton Books).
