Descrizione

8vo., First Edition, with portrait frontispiece and 17 plates on 12, some light offsetting from fold-ins to free endpapers, two small erasures on front paste-down, top and fore-edge lightly spotted; navy cloth, gilt back, a very good, bright, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly rubbed at extremities, chipped with minor loss (not affecting lettering) at head of backstrip, and with long closed tear across rear panel. The moving story of RAF Bomber Command's most famous squadron and arguably the most famous air exploit of WWII. The stirring 'Dam Busters March', written by Eric Coates as the theme to the movie, was almost immediately adopted as an official march of the Royal Air Force. Increasingly difficult to find in this condition. Enser, p.64; Mulholland & Jordan B121 (recording the first edition).
