* The Avro Lancaster is Britain's most revered WWII heavy bomber * Includes the famous Dambuster raid and all subsequent outstanding and heroic wartime raids into the Reich * First-hand accounts from all combatants colour plates This book is a riveting account told in ten big chapters of the young RAF crews who flew Lancasters in RAF Bomber Command from 1942 to the end of the war in Europe in April 1945. It is unique in that the story is told using first person accounts from RAF aircrew and German night fighter crews who fought each other on raids on occupied Europe and Germany from 1942 onwards.
