The history of the Royal Air Force extends from primitive aviation experiments before World War I to today's sophisticated operations in the Persian Gulf and Balkans. This detailed study is the most comprehensive and up-to-date account of one of the world's most renowned air forces.
Over 600 expertly captioned illustrations supplement an informative text that traces British military aviation from the Royal Engineers Balloon Section to the formation of the RAF out of the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service during World War I, to the "few" who saved Britain during World War II, to the high-tech developments of the Cold War and post-Cold War world.
