Lancasters at War- Bomber Command Operations from RAF Grimsby

So vast was Bomber Command, that to tell its full story in any detail would be a huge task. In this book, Ian Reid has set out to explore its successes and failures through the men and machines that operated from one airfield, namely RAF Grimsby, and one unit, 100 Squadron. Forty years of research has resulted in Ian Reid drawing together a remarkable record of one part of Bomber Command’s wartime service. Packed full of first-hand accounts from aircrew, groundcrew and WAAFs, all of which are supported by many previously unpublished photographs, Lancaster at War is an important addition to the record of the Allies’ Strategic Bombing Offensive in the Second World War, as well as Bomber Command’s part in the defeat of the Third Reich.
