Very well written. Author has recorded the stories of countless Lancaster aircrew and recounted superbly. as well as those of families involved. Makes an ideal read as you can comfortably read one persons story or a chapter at a time, whereas other books its hard to pick a break. The only sadness of the book is that so many of them did not live to see it published, which leaves the reader with an overwhelming sadness, perhaps somebody should have written it sooner? That it has been written is a fine tribute to a command that paid a heavy price for it's service but was made something pf a pariah after by those in power.

Good back stories. Readers prepare to be upset... Tragic reminders of losses and 'attrition' rates. We won the war, but the price haunts me.
