Also experience the terror of being shot down...and living to soar again, defending Malta and the Mediterranean. A rare story of courage.

8vo hardcover 224pp index, b/w illus. very good, some foxing on outer edges / very good d/w. At the end of the Second World War over 55,000 air crew of Bomber Command had lost their lives, amounting to 70% of the total RAF casualties. Yet in contrast to Fighter Command, few bomber pilots were household names to the general public. However, within the ranks of the RAF itself, certain men stood out, gaining high reputations for their courage and leadership, a respect achieved regardless often of the decorations they had won or the number of sorties flown. These were the Bomber Barons. nnBomber Barons shows the development of Bomber Command from comparatively un-organized, non-cohesive raids of the early part of the war to the highly-trained and deadly offensive weapon it became under Sir Arthur Harris, from 1942, AOC-in-C of Bomber Command, the greatest baron of them all.

Publisher: Airlife Publishing 1991
8vo hardcover 276pp index, b/w illus. very good / very good d/w. One of the major contributions to the success of Operation "Overlord" in 1944 was the extensive Allied bombing of the German Army's supply system in Northern France and Belgium. Point Blank and Beyond is a detailed account of the part played by bombers of the Royal Air Force and the 8th U.S. Army Air Force in this controversial campaign, known as the "Transportation Plan." During the preparation of his book, the author interviewed many former aircrew and French civilians, including resistance members. They have provided much valuable information on this largely unrecorded aspect of World War II.

The Berlin Raids: R.A.F. Bomber Command Winter 1943/44
Middlebrook, Martin
Book Number: 47568
ISBN: 0670806978
Publisher: Viking 1988
8vo hardcover 407pp index, b/w illus. very good / very good d/w. No other bombing campaign in World War II against a single target was pressed so relentlessly for so long, and at such a cost, as British Bomber Command's seven-month campaign to break the German will by destroying Berlin. More than 10,000 sorties were launched, more than 30,000 tons of bombs dropped. Six hundred and seven British aircraft were lost. Balancing the cost of the campaign against advantages gained, the official Royal Air Force historian concluded early on that the Battle of Berlin "was more than a failure. It was a defeat." Middlebrook ( The First Day on the Somme ) isn't so condemning, although he judges that Luftwaffe night-fighters in combination with ground anti-aircraft defenses hurt Bomber Command more than Bomber Command harmed Berlin. His straightforward narrative covers the 19 major raids, with a detailed description of three in particular, and includes recollections by British and German airmen as well as German civilians who weathered the storm that lasted throughout the winter of 1943-44. Photos. nCopyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc. nnProduct DescriptionnThe Battle of Berlin was the longest and most sustained bombing offensive against one target of World War II. 19 major raids between August 1943 and March 1944 and more than 10,000 aircraft sorties dropped over 30,000 tons of bombs on Berlin. The city was not destroyed, however, and the RAF lost over 600 aircraft and their crews. The controversy over whether the battle was a success or failure has continued to this day. The author has interviewed more than 400 people in this study in an attempt to bring together both sides of the story - the tactics of the bombing force and the experiences of ordinary people in the target city. The battle is described month by month, and tactical factors that helped first the bombers and then the night fighters are identified. The experiences of the people of Berlin are also recounted, showing how bombs destroyed homes and families, affected morale and reduced the German war effort. Martin Middlebrook is the author of many books on military history including "The First Day on the Somme", "The Bomber Command War" and "Operation Corporate", a study of the Falklands War.

To Hell and Back. True life experiences of bomber comand at war
Rolfe, Mel
Book Number: 47571
ISBN: 1898697701
Publisher: Grub Street 1998
8vo hardcover 192pp index, b/w illus. very good / very good d/w. Following the success of Looking into Hell, published in 1995, Mel Rolfe has researched another twenty dramatic but true stories of gallantry in World War Two. Some of them defy belief - like the RAF bomb aimer who was blown out of his Liberator over Warsaw at 400ft without a parachute and made a poignant return in 1989 to witness the unveiling of a memorial on the crash site. Others defy logic - like two men of the same crew who survived a terrible crash, neither aware of the other's existence but both saved by a tolling of the same church bell.
