Another massive historical compilation by Rob Hansen, this time focusing on British science fiction fandom during World War Two. Homefront brings together a great many first-hand accounts of wartime experience through fans eyes, showing how the lines of communication between fans continued during that huge national disruption despite everything Nazi Germany and UK bureaucracy could throw at them.
The cover photo shows the remains of The Red Bull, the first pub to host London fandom’s meetings, after it was destroyed during an air raid on 16 April 1941. Photo courtesy of Holborn Library.
ALL PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF HOMEFRONT GO TO THE TRANSATLANTIC FAN FUND (TAFF).
