Royal octavo blue cloth hardcover gilt letters map illus. endpapers xi 181 pp. Very Good with speckling to edges; in a Very Good mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In his foreword Marshal of the Royal Air Force Sir John Slessor G.C.B. D.S.O. M.C. who himself as a subaltern in the Royal Flying Corps flew the first operational sortie from Hornchurch in 1915 against a Zeppelin says “The book is more than a record of the fighting tradition of a famous R.A.F. base. The Story of Hornchurch is really the story of the Air Defence of London. The names of many of the men who fought from Hornchurch are household words in the R.A.F. today such as Sailor Malan Paddy Finucane Douglas Bader Brian Kingcombe Piet Hugo and Harry Broadhurst. But the story also pays tribute to those of an earlier generation such as Tempest and Sowrey Murlis Green and Armstrong -- great men in their day and brilliant pilots all who laid the foundation of a tradition on which the Luftwaffe broke in 1940. This book traces the development of fighter tactics right from the early days of Zeppelins and Gothas through the peace-time exercises to the developments of Radar and the highly organized system of the last war. The International and Empire aspects of the pilots who flew from Hornchurch are particularly brought out. The very large number of illustrations include many which have not been published before.

4638bdLondon: Jarrolds Publishers Limited n.d. Small octavo hardcover blue cloth hardcover map illus. endpapers 192 pp. Very Good with bookplate and light foxing age darkened spotting to page edges; in a Very Good dust jacket with lightly rubbed edges with a price stamp of 7/6 net. From dust jacket: One of the lessons of the war is the need of adequate air support for the Royal Navy. Five and a half million square miles of sea covering the Atlantic between the Arctic and the Equator are patrolled by the Coastal Command of the Royal Air Force giving that support. Here is a book that takes you behind the scenes of a great Command -- into the Headquarters’ Operations Room where R.A.F. Group Captains and R.N. Commanders work side by side; into the Group Headquarters; into the Stations from which by day and night fly a never-ceasing series of patrolling aircraft; and inot the aircraft themselves. The author who has had exceptional opportunities of watching the development and work of Coastal Command since the start of the war discusses the question of co-operation with the Royal Navy and shows how the two Services are linked at every stage of the Command’s activities. Here you are introduced to the men who spend their flying time over the Atlantic helping to bring the conbvoys safely to Britain; who hunt the U-boats and have driven them largely to the other side of the ocean; who make dangerous reconnaissances over the long coastlines of enemy territory; who sweep across enemy supply ships at mast-height while where their bombs thud into the decks below; who launch torpedoes against enemy warships. Here you may meet the pilot who captured a U-boat from the air; the pilot who found the Bismark; and navigators who as mariners of the air are the most highly skilled in the world.
