Mark Glaister is back for another fascinating talk.
In a new presentation, Marks covers how photography changed the way war was conducted, spanning the historical 'big picture' to local history. Some of the images may startle you, some may surprise you and some may bring home the spirit of the war years - but all of them have a story to tell. From how crucial photographic intelligence supported the D-Day landings to individual stories especially of those who served at RAF Langham.
Mark is a local artist, published author and Archivist at Langham Dome Museum. In recent years he has given many talks to local groups and societies across the county.
Tickets are £3 and will include refreshments. Booking is essential. You can book by visiting www.norfolk.gov.uk/libraryonline or by visiting Stalham Library during staffed hours.
