Description: |
Following the success of Amberley Publishing's Spitfire Manual, collated here for the first time into a single book are an amazing array of leaflets, books and manuals issued by the British War Office during the Second World War. These wartime publications were designed to aid pilots and crew flying the Lancaster bomber.
An introduction is supplied by aviation historian (and ex-military pilot) Gordon Wilson. The Lancaster Manual 1943 also includes specially commissioned photography of an active Avro Lancaster. Other sections include the engineering of the Lancaster, the bomber crews, navigation, bomb aiming, night operations and the famous Dambusters Raid.
