Description
Not unlike so many other vestiges of war that have infiltrated our cities and landscapes, WWII bunkers and fortifications appear unwilling to be absorbed or erased. The signs of armed conflict that make up the 'Conflict archaeological landscape' cut across but could also unify Europe. This book presents a rich and unique iconography and a selection of essays. This book provides a new critical approach to the Atlantikwall, the largest WWII bunker, proposing that it be interpreted as one of the major Western military archaeological landscapes.
