About this Item

*Sales/posting to the USA suspended*. Hard cover dust wrapper, vii/248pp, b&w plates. Very light wear to edges of dw/boards; near fine. The third volume of a five part work that provides a comprehensive insight into all aspects of RAF Bomber Command in World War Two. This volume covers from July 1943 to March 1944 when Bomber Harris waged an air offensive against the Ruhr, carried out fire raids on Hamburg, and nightly sent a mass of bombers to attack Berlin and other targets simultaneously with the aim of destroying Hitler's war machine. It is a matter o f debate whether the heroic effort conducted at great cost contributed materially to the ultimate victory or was a misguided sacrifice of thousands of aircrew and a misdirected assault on the German civilian population. However there is no doubting the courage of RAF and Dominion, American and Polish and Czech and Dutch bomber crews.
