World War ll London Blitz Diary Volume 1

December 21, 1939

The Germans are laying magnetic mines, and attaching neutrals. They bomb fishing boats from the air, and machine gun the fisherman on the decks, and in their little open boats.

December 27, 1939

It strikes me as we are going to hear some very bad news tonight. Our airplanes are going over constantly, bombers, in both directions, and flying very low. A group passed now which seemed almost to graze over our roof tops. There are many more about today than is usual, especially in this last hour.
