USED COASTAL COMMAND AT WAR

Description

Used, “Coastal Command at War” by Chaz Bowyer, Hardcover

Veteran Royal Air Force historian Chaz Bowyer’s classic account relates the full story of all the many roles undertaken by Coastal Command.  The Royal Air Force’s Coastal Command carried out a vital but largely unknown struggle throughout World War II. Often equipped with obsolete aircraft, their mission was initially the protection of Britain’s convoys during the Battle of the Atlantic.  This book is simply an attempt to recreate something of the authentic atmosphere of the wartime tasks, problems, successes and sacrifices of the men of Coastal Command. As the war progressed, Coastal Command adopted a more aggressive role, attacking German shipping in its home waters.
