About the book

Paul Brickhill's The Dam Busters tells the story of the Royal Air Force's famous 1943 raid on German dams. The specially formed 617 Squadron used Barnes Wallis's innovative bouncing bomb to attack heavily defended targets. The book describes the technical preparation, flying skill and enormous risks involved in one of the best-known air operations of the Second World War.
