Relentless Offensive (Book )

Just started this book, heavy going but a worth while addition to the collection.

Extremely interesting chapters on Harris loathing for all things Handley Page and Shorts and his struggle for better defensive armament.

Steve, on first appearances, this looks like it could really be a good read. Certainly the main players are there. Do you know if this is the authors first foray into Bomber Command related material?

Hi John,

Not sure mate, if it is, it's a good effort. ;)
