‎BUCK McNAIR: CANADIAN SPITFIRE ACE. THE STORY OF GROUP CAPTAIN R W McNAIR DSO DFC & 2 Bars Ld'H CdG RCAF.‎

‎London: Grub Street 2001. 179 pp large 8vo 9 7/16" H. B&w photographs Spitfire profiles. "Robert 'Buck' McNair came from Nova Scotia the second of three sons born of a mix of Scottish and German parents. As a young man he became interested in flight and was lucky enough to be able to fly floatplanes off the Canadian lakes. When war came he went through flight training in Canada sailed to England and in the summer of 1941 found himself in the newly formed 411 Squadron RCAF. Eventually this unit began flying sweeps over Northern France and he saw his first combat actions during that autumn. An aggressive fighter pilot he was chosen by his Canadian CO to accompany him to the besieged island of Malta in the spring of 1942 to coincide with the arrival on that island of the first Spitfires." McNair went on to win three DFCs and a DSO among other awards and although he was twice wounded his score of victories reached 16 "with others probably destroyed and damaged. This is a remarkable story of courage and heroism by one of the Second World War's top-scoring fighter pilots who inspired his men and fellow pilots in actions above the skies of France and Malta and who despite being almost blind in one eye continued to lead and spur his men onto greater actions."

‎THE BATTLE OF THE AIRFIELDS 1ST JANUARY 1945.‎

‎Grub Street London 1994 revised updated Anniversary edition including new German material. 224 pp large 8vo hard cover in dust jacket. SIGNED ON TITLE PAGE BY AUTHOR. B&w photos. "At first light on the morning of Ist January 1945 over 800 Luftwaffe fighters took off from their bases in Germany to attack Allied airfields in Holland Belgium and France. Some of these surprise attacks proved successful some were hardly noticed while others were disastrous for the attackers. Basing his account on information from both Wing and Squadron diaries and with many first-hand account s from the men who were there Norman Franks paints a definitive picture of that winter morning and the rest of the day. In these attacks and in the air battles which were fought at low level across the open countrysides and over towns in t h e L o w Countries the Luftwaffe lost up to 300 of their fighter aircraft and over 200 pilots were killed or taken prisoner. The Allied air forces lost some 200 aircraft with little loss of life and were able to replace their losses within d ay s w h er ea s t he Luftwaffe had greater difficulty in finding new pilots. Operation Bodenplatte was planned as a lightening blow to smash the British and American forces in north-west Europe. In fact it turned out to be the Luftwaffe's fin al ac t o f s el f-d est ru ct ion." Tiny scuff to bottom of front board. Dust jacket has minor rubbing. This is a new unread book.
