The bomber campaign against Germany is still one of the most contentiously debated of the war, leaving many to ask what was achieved by the deaths of thousands of German civilians—many of them women and children. Were all means justified against Nazi Germany?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcclaimed historian Robin Neillands examines every detail of the Allied campaign led by British Air Chief Marshal Sir Arthur \"Bomber\" Harris: the strengths and fundamental flaws of the campaign, the technical difficulties and developments, and above all, the day-by-day, night-by-night endurance of the crews flying to the limit in discomfort and danger, facing flak and enemy fire. The personal experiences of British, American, Canadian, Australian, and other Allied fliers play a key part in this account, along with those of German airmen and civilians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Engrossing. . . .
