This book covers, across eight individual chapters, the part played by the earliest V- bombers ? the Vulcan, Victor and Valiant ? and fighter bombers in the Nuclear Age. It consolidates a range of first-hand accounts and snippets from pilot testimony, combined with the author's well-researched historical narrative, to create a rounded sense of events as they played out during this dynamic period of aviation history. It explores the era of the 1980s right up to the present-day, illustrating how things have developed and evolved over recent years in this sphere. AUTHOR: Martin Bowman is one of Britain's best-known Second World War aviation historians and authors.
