The spirit of war-time Britain in music, sounds and song
1 CD. Over 1 hour of playing time. All tracks restored and digitally remastered.
Here’s the ultimate musical tribute to the bulldog spirit of the people of Britain – a 23-strong collection of morale boosting songs together with the inspirational words of Field Marshall Montgomery and Winston Churchill and even the stirring sound of a Spitfire flypast!
