| Description: |
The contribution of Scotland's airfields during the Second World War is sometimes underestimated or even overlooked completely, but the aircraft that flew from the seven airfields of Fife and Central Region were of crucial importance in the battle to keep the North Sea open to allied ships. |
| Synopsis: |
Leuchars was ready for action from the very beginning of the war. As the war progressed more airfields were built including Crail, Grangemouth, Stirling and Donibristle. Martyn Chorlton's thoroughly researched and action packed book describes the history of these airfields, highlights the work carried out from them and describes their overall effect on the war. It will appeal equally to aviation enthusiasts and to readers who recall the era when Scottish skies throbbed with the drone of departing and returning aircraft. |
