Eighth Air Force Bomber Stories: Eye Witness Accounts from American Airmen and British Civilians in the Second World War - Hardcover

Ian McLachlan and the late Russell J. Zorn present a compelling collection of more than 40 true-life accounts by US Eighth Air Force bomber crewmen flying from England during the Second World War, and by the British civilians whose lives they touched. Some are the result of detailed post-war research by the authors into aircraft crash sites; others are the memories of those who were lucky enough to survive the war. Each story is supported by a unique selection of personal and combat photographs, many taken by Russell J. Zorn during the war.

Ian McLachlan is an aviation archaeologist, historian and author of a number of books about the USAAF in the Second World War, including USAAF Fighter Stories, Night of the Intruders and Final Flights. He lives in Suffolk. Russell J. Zorn was a USAAF photographer with the US 1st Strategic Air Depot at Honington, Suffolk.
