Bunker Research – The Hidden History of Modernism in the Mountains

High above the pleasure palaces of the French Riviera is the Alpine Extension
of the Maginot Line. These little-known bunkers were built in the 1930s to
protect against Mussolini. But things didn’t quite turn out as the French
expected …

Now, they are marooned and crumbling in some of the most beautiful, remote
parts of the Alps. They are disappearing into the landscapes they once
commanded, stray facts from a future passed, still waiting for an onslaught
that never came.

Bunker Research is for adventurers, architects, historians, mountain lovers
and urban explorers. Follow this disquieting journey, told in stunning photos
and prose, up peaks, along ridges and down valleys, searching for the hidden
history of modernism in the mountains.

This second edition follows the long-sold-out limited first printing, which
won `Best Self Published Book› at the British Book Design & Production Awards
2016. It features 10 pages of new photos.
