Patrick Stephens, Cambridge, (1984), first edition. 233 pp, large 8vo (9 7/16" H), hard cover in dust jacket. Many b&w photographs. ISBN 0850596785 "Beginning with a general description of a typical wartime bomber airfield, (this book) goes on to relate in their own words the personal stories of s everal crews and their missions. The locales vary, as do the targets, the results and the nationalities of the raconteurs, but the overall image...is one of an Empire of bold young men treading where Goring boasted no enemy would succeed in t r e a d i n g. All the courage, drama, tragedy and, indeed, humour of war is contained in this compelling documentary which will appeal both to modern historians and enthusiasts as well as to those who remember the dark but strangely exhilarating d ay s wh ic h it recalls." Bump at bottom of spine, tiny bump at bottom corners of boards and at top of spine, verey tiny tear/wrinkle at top of page 111/112. Dust jacket has very light wrinkling at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds. VG/VG+ Price: 20.00 USD
