This incredible volume sees urban planner, cultural theorist and philosopher Paul Virilio examine the 1500 bunkers built during World War II that form the 'Atlantic Wall' - an elaborate defence system created by to forestall an Allied landing in France. Left decommissioned and empty, these brutal structures - captured here in haunting photographs and architectural drawings - leave an ominous reminder as to the destruction and violence of some of Europe's darkest years. A classic in the making, Bunker Archeology arrives courtesy of Princeton Architectural Press.
