Heroes of Bomber Command Lincolnshire by Rupert Matthews

At the outbreak of the Second World War, Lincolnshire was known as 'Bomber County', serving as the heart of Britain's air power. Its four main airfields—Hemswell, Scampton, Waddington, and Cottesmore—hosted eight squadrons under the command of Arthur 'Bomber' Harris. In this meticulously researched book, author Rupert Matthews, son of a Bomber Command sergeant, provides detailed accounts of these operations, focusing on the courageous individuals who flew perilous missions into enemy territory. The narrative includes the Dambusters Raid of 1943 and is complemented by photographs of the men and their aircraft. This book is part of a series, with another volume titled 'Heroes of Bomber Command Norfolk'.
