The two-engined Mosquito was one of the classic aircraft of the Second World War. Famously wooden-built, its graceful lines and powerful performance have made it into an airborne icon. Its operational versatility as a fighter, low level bomber and reconnaissance aircraft was unsurpassed.

In this book we get the first-hand crew accounts of a selection of the actions and missions that the 'Mossie' undertook. These include audacious raids on Nazi HQs and Gestapo jails real precision attacks carried out by ace fliers. AUTHOR: Martin Bowman is a dedicated professional aviation historian. He has numerous titles in print. He lives in Norwich, Norfolk.
