Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. On the night of 16/17 May 1943 a select group of young RAF Bomber Command airmen carried out one of the most audacious and daring low level raids of the Second World War. Nineteen aircrews of No.617 Squadron, flying modified Avro Lancasters, each armed with a 'bouncing bomb', were detailed t…o attack specific dams, viewed as essential to Germany's war effort. Two were indeed breached in an extraordinary display of skill and courage, but at a cost of eight Lancasters lost. Of the 56 airmen flying these aircraft, 53 were killed and 3 were captured. In Dam Busters: Failed to Return Fighting High Publishing brings together notable Bomber Command historians to recount the lives of some of the Dam Busters who were lost that fateful night. Drawing upon family archives, official documents, wartime memoirs and letters, flying logbooks, and relative and witness recollections, and illustrated throughout with colour and black and white photographs and documents, the authors piece together the extraordinary, gripping, yet ultimately tragic stories of these select young men.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. A fabulous, bright copy with no owner inscriptions and clean pages throughout. The book is in wonderful condition and looks hardly read. The black cloth boards are fresh with crisp gilt title lettering on the spine. The dust jacket is bright and clean, al…beit price clipped with some light surface scuffing. On the front free end paper there's a plate, probably from a signing event, which is signed by the Canadian airman, Fred Sutherland. The plate states in print: "Signed by Flt. Sgt. Fred Sutherland, Front gunner of AJ-N piloted by Les Knight who successfully attacked the Eder Dam causing the final breach." The plate has an illustration of a Lancaster Bomber above the signature and the RAF coat of arms at the foot. This is a wonderful and unique copy. A little research tells us the following information about Sutherland and his pilot. Fred Sutherland was one of the last survivors of the famous "Dam Busters" raids during WWII who died in 2019. On a later low flying mission in Sept. 1943 his plane was damaged so badly, the bomb jettisoned, that Fred and most of the rest of the crew were forced to bail out over occupied Dutch territory. His pilot, Les Knight, the same pilot as in the Dam Busters mission, was forced to crash land and, unfortunately, died in the process. Fred Sutherland had to escape across occupied Holland and France, into Spain before coming back to the UK 2 months later. He went on to live to a ripe old age back in Canada. Quite a story. Signed by Subject of Biography.
