Bristol at War

With unique film of wartime Bristol, newsreel footage, and reports of that period from the Evening Post, this superb DVD paints a fascinating picture of Bristol at war.

The preparations for war, evacuation, the effect of rationing, the devastation of the Blitz, the impact of the arrival of thousands of American soldiers and the joyous scenes on VE Day, are just some of the aspects of war on the Home Front captured on film and reported in detail by the Evening Post.

The incredible scenes of Bristol during the Blitz, and the moving first-hand accounts of Evening Post reporters are particularly poignant, and by combining these two remarkable archives, we have been able to create this fascinating record of a city at war.
