From the beginning of World War Two the RAF s Bomber Command had been the only means of striking Hitler s Reich & its war machine. The entry into the war of the United States & the subsequent arrival in the UK of the Eighth Air Force was to more than double the Allied capability. The Flying Fortress & Liberator heavy bombers were mostly flown across the Atlantic by their young unblooded aircrew & many succumbed en route & never arrived. Flying in north Europe was a different ball game from American skies & it took a considerable time before the crews familiarised themselves with the vagaries of fog low cloud rain & snow. The American bombers bristled with defensive armament & elected to fly in close defensive formation during the day leaving the RAF to carry out nightime raids. With the arrival of long-range protective escort fighters the task became a little easier. This book explains including many first-hand accounts how the American bomber force helped fight to eventual victory by decimating German industry transport systems & breaking the Nazi war spirit. ...

This is a compelling & moving sports drama played out in the bloody arena of highly dangerous Grand Prix motor racing of the fifties. It is a real-life story that matches the excitement & suspense of the very best fiction. It is definitely a must-read for all motor racing fans. This story is arguably the most compelling & moving sports drama of all time. It matters because it is a testament to the eternal values of friendship honesty of purpose & self sacrifice. It is played out in the bloody arena of highly dangerous Grand Prix motor racing of the fifties an age in which the drivers were still amateurs & the sport controllers & team owners as yet untainted by the corruption of big money. It is as inspiring as it is tragic. In 1976 I was commissioned by BBC TV to write a film about Mike Hawthorn the first British world motor racing champion. It was never made. The reason? The facts of his life & death were then unclear. Had I known what they were it would have catapulted the drama into the bracket of classical tragedy. Despite research I found myself faced with a well kept secret. During the following thirty five years I kept returning to it but still failed to penetrate that mystery. Until now. This true story is driven by suspense as the hero is faced with a dreadful dilemma. Rarely does a real life story as that of Mike Hawthorn match the best of fiction. ONE GLORIOUS HOUR does just that. Set in 1958 he is one of the four man Ferrari motor racing team in Grand Prix. & he is favourite to become Britain's first world motor racing champion. & he is dying. ...
