Publisher's Notes

Now in paperback -- fully illustrated with many never-before-published photographs and drawings, this book is a sequence of gripping narrative "snapshots" of the controversial Short Stirling bomber. Of the RAF's trio of four-engined heavy bombers in World War II, the Short Stirling was unique -- not least for incurring the ire of "Bomber" Harris through its performance shortcomings in the service of Bomber Command. Introduced into RAF squadron service in August 1940, over 2,300 Stirlings were eventually built and flown by the RAF before the type was finally withdrawn from service in July 1946. This book brings aviation history buffs the words of the air and groundcrews to tell the daring story of the Stirling squadrons in World War II.
