I am trying to find a dvd or video of the 1941 Clydside blitz to give to my dad for Christmas. He saw quite recently in a newspaper an advertisment for just such a dvd, but can't remember which newspaper. The dvds contain historical newsreal footage of the events of the time. My father was bombed out during the blitz as a 14 year old and moved to London with his family who had previosly been coal merchant's in Glasgow. If anyone could advise me where I can find a copy of either a dvd or video that would be great.

Here you go:
THE CLYDESIDE BLITZ DVD
http://www.alberene.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DVF11020

It's UK Format though.

Here's a book:
Amazon.com: The Holy City - A Tale of Clydebank: Books: Meg Henderson
... the history of Clydebank and the surrouding area that was involved in the Blitz. ... and a very accurate account of life in Clydeside during that conflict. ...

Your query is very interesting. I have tried and tried to find what you're looking for. I didn't want your dad to be disappointed, but so far no real luck. There are some blitz videos though. Try:

Oops! Just saw that someone who is a better researcher than I got the right answer while I was furiously looking...So your dad should be happy this holiday! Bravo, Elizabeth B!
