Had a ten minute browse of this yesterday, Seems very informative and good value. Also covers the shadow factories with useful site plans. Details of the ranges, which may interest some .
On reviewing a book I first look at the index and the glossary. Unfortunately this doesn't have an index, and it really needs one. Glaring error in the glossary was that the BEAC stood for British European Airways (Corporation). I also noticed in the sources there were no TNA references.
That apart it's a high quality publication and very readable - 350 pages. I will certainly get a copy in the near future.

Book arrived today. Just a quick flick through and it looks to be a good buy. I bought a load of books relating to aircraft construction and in particular the shadow factories. I will probably get around to reading it all the way through at some point.
There is a picture of practice bombs in the sand being collected at low tide. They all look to be at the same angle (60-70 degrees from horizontal) but all look as thought they impacted from slightly different directions. I wonder if it was staged?
