Mosquito
The RAF's Legendary Wooden Wonder and its Most Extraordinary Mission
Ratings2
Average rating5
Excellent military history – well researched, very detailed, and well written. In this book Rowland White makes a great case that the Mosquito was the best multi-purpose aircraft of WW2, covering its development and deployment throughout the war. The aircraft was incredible as were the people who flew it.
This book also tells the story of the Danish resistance to the Nazi occupation during WW2. That story is told interspersed with the story of the Mosquito in war until they come together in one of the most daring missions of the war.
Good book. 4.5 stars rounded up.
