Stories told with heart

I loved every story told about these brave men! I found it interesting to hear their backgrounds, their missions, and what happened to each one of them! Very well written and told with much heart!

Interesting stories but the writing wasn't the best. Poorly written at times and hard to follow who is being talked about.

Brilliant first hand accounts of flying with the RAF into deepest Germany during the dark days of WW2

[Gary Pearston]

Very good first person accounts of the air crews from bomber command. Certainly kept my attention throughout. Read about one crew member from my hometown.
