The Wellington Bomber was omnipresent during the Second World War,
employed in a variety of contexts in the fight against the Axis powers.
The pilots who flew this aircraft did so with an immense amount of
pride, and there is perhaps no-one better placed to tell the story of
this incredible aircraft than these men. Martin Bowman has drawn
together a selection of first-hand pilot testimonies in an effort to
record authentically the experience of flying the much-mythologized
Wellington during one of the most challenging eras of aviation history.
The book is supplemented by two plate sections of stirring black and
white images.
