At the end of the First World War, British imperial power was at an
all-time low. That was until a ragtag band of visionaries,
including Winston Churchill and T.E. Lawrence, proposed that the
aeroplane, the wonder weapon of the age, could save the empire.
Using the radical strategy of air control, the RAF tried to subdue
vast swathes of the Middle East, Asia and Africa. Wings of Empire
is a compelling account of the colonial air campaigns that saw a
generation of young airmen take to the skies to battle against
cultures that had never seen a plane before. This is the full story
of the RAF's most extraordinary conflict, told here for the first
time.
