First and foremost this book is dedicated to the memory of the innocent civilians, particularly the children, who
suffered and died during the siege. Secondly to Dorothy (my mum), Angie the ever patient and to Charlotte, Alex and
James my children, who, thank'fully, have never had to experience the suffering described in these pages. A final
dedication goes to the members of the Belanovsky family who were there.
