Important proposal by Barnes Wallis, arguing that the present methods of attacking German industry are effectively thwarted by dispersal, therefore what is needed is concentrated attacks on sources of power using very large bombs. Anticipating the use of the Bouncing Bomb and the "Tallboy" bomb developed by the author. Originally published 1940 and as printed on cover "Copy of the Original Report Reproduced 1970". Research indicates that the Imperial War Museum hold a similar 1970 copy in this format. Clearly a very small number of these copies were printed and bound. c.150pp., including numerous diagrams and photograph. Some of the printed pages are a little faded but the whole report is fully legible. An original signature of Barnes Wallis has been neatly stuck under his name on the title page "Yours sincerely B.N.Wallis". Overall condition Very good and rare.
