Bomber Command is journalist and military historian Sir Max Hastings'
compelling account of one of the most controversial struggles of the
Second World War.
RAF Bomber Command’s offensive against the cities of Germany was one of
the epic campaigns of the Second World War. More than 56,000 British
and Commonwealth aircrew and 600,000 Germans died in the course of the
RAF’s attempt to win the war by bombing. The struggle began in 1939
with a few primitive Whitleys, Hampdens and Wellingtons, and ended six
years later with 1,600 Lancasters, Halifaxes and Mosquitoes razing
whole cities in a single night.
Max Hastings traced the developments of area bombing using a wealth of
documents, letters, diaries and interviews with key surviving
witnesses. Bomber Command is, in turn, a fascinating,
meticulously-researched, and vivid assessment of the RAF's integral
role in the Second World War.
