Description
Aviation book
The Role of the Bomber describes the changing strategic and tactical operations of the bomber from the days of ballooning to the late 1970's. It is a role that has always been significant, but often different from that predicted - surprisingly effective at sea, but unexpectedly limited in the Korean and Vietnam conflicts.
Ronald William Clark ( November 2nd, 1916 - March 9th, 1987 ) was born in London ( England ). He was educated at King's College School. In 1933, he embarked on a career as a journalist, and served as a war correspondent during the Second World War after being turned down for military service on medical grounds. As a war correspondent, Robert W. Clark landed on Juno Beach with the Canadians on D - Day. He followed the war until the end, and remained in Germany to report on the major War Crimes trials.
After returning to Britain in 1948, Robert W. Clark embarked on a career as an author. He wrote extensively on subjects ranging from mountain climbing ( over a dozen titles ), the atomic bomb, Balmoral Castle, and world explorers, as well as novels of alternate history. He also wrote a number of biographies of a diverse range of historical figures, including : Charles Darwin, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Sigmund Freud, J.B.S. Haldane, V.I. Lenin, Bertrand Russell, Ernst Chain, Edward Appleton and William F. Friedman. V. I. Lenin was Clark's last biography and came out the year following his death.
Here are some of the book he wrote : Montgomery of Alamein ( 1960 ), The Day the Rope Broke : The Story of the First Ascent of the Matterhorn ( 1965 ), The Last Year of the Old World ( Alternate history, 1970 ), Man Who Broke ’ Purple ’ : Life of the World's Greatest Cryptologist, William F. Friedman ( 1977 ) and Works of Man : A History of Invention and Engineering from the Pyramids to the Space Shuttle ( 1985 ).
