ENEMY COAST AHEAD - UNCENSORED (Pbk)

Reprint of the famous autobiography by Wing-Commander Guy Gibson VC DSO and Bar DFC and Bar - but with the censored parts restored. The published edition of "Enemy Coast Ahead" was carefully cut by wartime censors to conceal not only specific details of his career and secret aspects of Bomber Command operations, but more explicitly his views of the conduct of the bombing campaign, his opinion of senior officers and his thoughts on the behaviour of the general population in wartime conditions. Much has been written and said about Gibson and his controversial character, and much about the true Gibson has remained shrouded in mystery and rumour. Now, for the first time, Crecy Publishing has published Gibson's original manuscript, with newly added photographs and diagrams.
