About the Author
R.L.T. Bickers has written more books about the RAF and its predecessor, the RFC, than any other author past or present - some under a pseudonym. His biography of his friend 'Ginger' Lacey, the top-scoring pilot in the Battle of Britain, was published to acclaim in 1962. He volunteered for the RAF on the outbreak of war and served, with a Permanent Commission, for eighteen years. In England he operated with Fighter and Coastal Commands; in North Africa and Italy with the Desert Air Force and Mediterranean Allied Coastal Air Force. After the war he did a tour in Hong Kong and Malaya.
From the Back Cover
He describes the war of the men on the ground, the crews who serviced the planes and the Airfield.

Air War Normandy
Seller: Chapter Two Books, Ammanford, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Air War Normandy by Richard Townshend Bickers is a concise, highly readable account of the aerial dimension of the Normandy campaign, charting how Allied air power shaped the success of Operation Overlord from D-Day through the breakout from the beachhead. Bickers covers the strategic bombing that softened German infrastructure, the tactical air support that crippled armour and supply lines, and the intense air battles fought over the invasion corridor. Drawing on pilot testimonies, operational records, and his trademark narrative clarity, he highlights the coordination between air and ground forces and the decisive role of air superiority in the campaignâs outcome. A strong addition for collectors of WWII aviation history. Seller Inventory # mon0001644543
