Summary: Impressive
Comment: This book is the culmination of a great deal of research by the author and the results of his work are very evident.

Another reviewer has suggested that the narrative is not very exciting and I am inclined to agree but the purpose of the book is not necessarily to entertain but rather to present a record of an important adjunct to the main and much more widely documented military activity towards the end of the war.

Presenting the amount of material contained within these pages in the concise manner adopted by the author does exclude much of the literary "padding" which might otherwise have been used to make a more engaging read but I found the book at once interesting, compelling and poignant with the contributions from survivors of both sides of the conflict to be very human.

I enjoyed it and recommend it.

Richard.

Summary: A very detailled historical research
Comment: The book is an excellent and very detailled history of the operations flown by the Banff and Dallachy wings from 09/44 to the end of WWII.
The amount of research made is quite impressive, with a lot of first hand accounts.

But the way its written doesn't make it very exciting.
