Synopsis
Bomber commands offensive against the cities of Germany was one of the epic campaigns of the second world war. More than 56,000 British and Commonwealth aircrew and 600,000 Germans died in the course of the RAF's attempt to win the war by bombing. The struggle began in 1939, with a few score primitive Whitley's, Hapdens and Wellingtons groping blindly through the darkness over Europe. It ended six years later with 1,600 Lancaster's, Halifax's and Mosquitoes, equipped with the cream of Britain's wartime high technology, razing whole cities in a single night. Max Hastings traced the development of area bombing using a wealth of documents, letters, diaries and interviews with key surviving witnesses. Bomber Command is his classic account of one of the most controversial struggles of the war. Brilliantly researched..... an important contribution to our understanding of the second world war. Len Deighton. By far and away the best book. The Economist.
