À propos du livre
Al Greenberg was just twenty years old when he wrote this combat diary recording 35 missions over Germany as a bombardier during the Second World War. In the combat diary, Greenberg would meticulously document the details of each mission when he returned to the safety of his English base. The hand written pages are reproduced as they were written in his beautiful penmanship; commentary on opposite pages supply supplementary documentation about the missions. An introduction by his son puts the diary in the larger context of the war and Greenberg's place in it. A fascinating and detailed primary source for scholars of the air war in 1945.
