Description
Pre-owned. Another innovative feature of ‘RAF Squadrons’ is the inclusion of fifty-three maps on which can be found the locations of the more than 2500 airfields and landing grounds mentioned in the titles. Apart from identifying most of the relatively familiar UK airfields, these permit the historian to find the location of virtually any aerodrome used by an RAF squadron in Europe, Africa, Asia and elsewhere, in both war and peace. The information contained in this meticulously researched book is supported by some three hundred black and white photographs, many of the previously unpublished, plus line diagrams. This completely revised and updated edition permits RAF Squadrons to maintain its undisputed status as the leading reference work on its subject. As such, it must find a place on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in the Royal Air Force. A good clean copy in good condition. With dust jacket, which has two very small tears (No missing material) to the top and bottom right of the front, and a little discolouration and creasing along the top edge. Hardcover.
