26pp stapled booklet, with black and white illustrations, in illustrated, laminated card covers (very slightly rubbed on concerns, pages a little offset, else neat, clean, bright and tight throughout). Booklet gives a history of the secret project to construct sea forts, designed by Guy Maunsell, in the Thames Estuary during the second world war, to deter German magnetic mines. Hard to find title.
