Synopsis

The "Wooden Wonder" - as the de Havilland Mosquito was affectionately known - entered the 1939-1945 war late but made an immediate impact on account of the diverse roles it could perform - as fighter, bomber, and photo-reconnaissance plane. This book traces the complex development of the aircraft, including the political in-fighting which delayed it, its test programmes and its active service in various theatres.
