Description

Roy. 4to., Best Edition, with very numerous photographs and maps (a number full-page) in the text; navy cloth, backstrip lettered in silver, a fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR ON TITLE. Detailed account of the inception and development of British airborne medical units. Covers France, North Africa, Sicily, Italy and Norway, but inevitably the major part of the work is devoted to the medical role at Arnhem. Many useful photographs and much valuable vernacular material. The most comprehensive study and a splendid complement to Cole's 'Wings of Healing' (1963). The MS was first published in 1998, with a revised and augmented version in 1999. Following several reissues, this edition contains a revised Nominal Roll. SCARCE.
