Not for them the glorious, all-or-nothing exhilaration of the Battle of Britain pilots - rather, the slow dwindling of courage as mission followed mission, the long, freezing, ear-shattering journey to the target, the bursting flak, the prowling night fighters. Then, if they were lucky, the long haul home, sometimes nursing a battered, barely flyable machine, often perilously short of fuel. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBruce Lewis flew in thirty-six such raids. In this book he records, in his own words and those of his fellow survivors, the events that made operational flying such a fearful experience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis is a blisteringly honest account of life for the Second World War bombers.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bruce Lewis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474626289\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474626286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e George Weidenfeld \u0026amp; Nicholson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.04w x 0.55d","brand":"Bruce Lewis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44080062759167,"sku":"9781474626286","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0b5306d6-0974-49dc-9020-15be986c6300.jpg?v=1685484733","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aircrew-bruce-lewis-9781474626286","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
