These two publications record the Zeppelin attacks on targets in South East England made during the First World War. The first, devoted to the raid of 3rd September, includes a photograph of William Leefe Robinson, V.C., who brought the Zeppelin down. The second publication includes some of the same images, and adds others relating to the two later attacks, including portraits of the men who downed them. Other images show wreckage from the downed Zeppelins, and of one of the Zeppelins falling to earth.
