Octavo blue boards hardcover gilt letters 143 pp. Near-Fine with bookplate; in a Very Good mylar protected dust jacket with edgwear that includes a few small chips. From dust jacket: With the vast loneliness of the sky for their battleground the R. A. F. heroes of World War II flirted with death in situations that defy the imagination. could there have been a more fantastic scheme than the bombing of Amiens Jail in order to release the men of the Resistance imprisoned there Could there have been a battle more valiant than the pitting of 12 Venturas against 90 enemy fighter planes The men who performed these deeds were the intrepid ones. the ones who were doing their job the only way they knew how -- efficiently courageously relentlessly. In this stirring collection of high adventure tales is told the story of how war came to the Far East how the U-Boat menace was met how the Luftwaffe was scattered among the sands of the desert. There are the advantures of the Spitfire pilots and the exploits of the men who flew Stirling bombers. And throughout the book shines the spirit of the men with wings -- the crusaders of the skies.
