For those interested in the saga of the thousands of Bomber Command aircrew who spent time as a Prisoner of War, venture no further. Oliver Clutton-Brock's masterwork is the bible on the subject. He lists each individual airman, the date and aircraft he was flying when shot down, as well as the various POW camps in which he was held. The author clearly spent years reviewing the files at England's National Archives, because the depth of research is evident from the very first glance. And Mr. Clutton-Brock unearths some of the very best stories of resistance and escape.
