MURRAY PURA
LONDON DAWN
"NO PLACE FOR A D-DAY"

My novel London Dawn starts in 1934 & ends in 1941. It follows a family through the fascist upheavals in Germany, Europe, and Great Britain, including the infamous Nazi or Berlin Olympics of 1936, and into the beginning of the Second World War. In 1940, Hitler's Blitzkrieg flattened Belgium and Holland and France and the Luftwaffe, Nazi Germany's feared airforce, was unleashed on Britain as well. Some 700 pilots, most of them British, their ranks bolstered by Canadians, Americans, Poles, and pilots from other nations, flew into a bullet-riddled sky day after day in the summer and fall to battle thousands of German bombers and fighter planes.

They could have lost. Many still wonder why they didn't lose. The Luftwaffe was destroying British airfields and airplane factories and wearing the Allied pilots down by engaging them in constant combat. When Hitler turned on London, to try and break the will of England and the Londoners, the Allied pilots had the chance to catch their breath, and the RAF had the opportunity to repair their factories, continue producing more fighters to replace the ones lost in aerial combat, and bring all their airfields back into use. The Blitz was horrific and Londoners were killed by the hundreds of thousands - children, youths, women, and men - but London did not break, or England, or Britain.

It would have been impossible to have had a D-Day if they had broken and surrendered. Where would the invasion fleet have been assembled? Where would it have been launched from to assail the shores of the Nazi Empire? Halifax? New York? How could an invasion fleet have sailed across the Atlantic in secret? How could that massive armada have avoided detection? And what would have happened to it once the German wolf packs of submarines targeted them with torpedo after torpedo? Without the Battle of Britain - a Battle of Britain that was won - Britain's surrender would have left the western shores of the German Empire unmolested for generations. Come 2015, that battle in the air will have taken place 75 years ago. Victory among the clouds made sure there was a base to launch the liberation of Europe from in 1944.


QUESTION: What important 75th anniversary will take place in 2015 in addition to the 70th anniversary of the end of World War 2?

(Write your answer down or log it in the Word doc available on the blog tour page. Make sure you enter the main Rafflecopter giveaway today.)
