Holland writes in a succinct manner without the fussiness of some authors in the past. I always find his book massively readable but most importantly accurate without any false heroics. His description of the raid itself is excellent.This topic has been covered before by some excellent authors (including Guy Gibson himself) but this book re-invigorates the story and brings some new slants to bear upon it!

An in depth history and analysis of this singular operation. The depth of research is unbelievable. An insight into the shenanicagins of high command is barely believable as is the infighting at this time of war. I simply couldn’t put the book down.

A must read for those interested in the Dambusters raid. Puts right the way the raid was portrayed in the famous film, good though it was. Full of information regarding the development of the weapon, the crews involved and the raid itself. The true facts are here. Essential reading.
