ROCKET BOYS
THE EXHILARATING EXPLOITS OF THE EARLY MACH BUSTERS FROM 1945 ONWARDS DAVID BAKER
This is a tale of the generation of test pilots flying experimental aircraft powered by rocket motors during the period from 1945 to the mid-1970s. It is not a technical description of the aircraft they flew but the narrative of the men who built the machines and the pilots who took to the air to achieve unprecedented speeds and altitudes unequalled to the present. It is a human story, but one carved out of the evolving post-war world, coming to terms with a new tension between global superpowers and one in which technological progress was arguably the greatest it has been since 1945.
The book integrates the story of post-war US industry, the competitive drive to survive between plane-makers made rich by war production, challenged by the changed times of demobilisation and peace. Into the mix come fighter pilots and company men eager to sustain their craft and take on new challenges, alongside an emerging generation of post-war graduates straight from engineering or flight school, eager to make their mark. With a focus on those who achieved extraordinary things like Major ‘Chuck’ Yeager, Scott Crossfield and Joe Walker, there is also a look at those outside of the US’s endeavours including how Eric ‘Winkle’ Brown became the only non-German to fly the rocket-powered Me 163 and the test-flying of John Booth and Peter Lamb.
Rocket Boys is a record of the glorious years when nothing seemed impossible and which produced a group that propelled aviation into the stratosphere with devil-may-care attitudes and personal fortitude, with death and disaster stalking the very best.

V-BOMBERS
BRITAIN’S NUCLEAR FRONTLINE IN THE COLD WAR DR TONY REDDING
This is the story of a very British deterrent. Much has been written about the V-bombers – the Valiant, Victor and Vulcan – but virtually nothing has been said about their strategic nuclear strike role. How would Britain’s small force of subsonic bombers have retaliated following a Soviet attack? Would they have succeeded in visiting thermonuclear catastrophe on their Soviet targets?

V-Bombers: Britain’s Nuclear Frontline in the Cold War is the first detailed account of the operational capability and credibility of the airborne nuclear deterrent during the peak years of confrontation with the Soviet Union.
“Vital to any student of RAF and modern British history.”
Andrew Thomas, Britain At War
“The first detailed account of the operational capability and credibility of the airborne nuclear deterrent during the years of peak confrontation with the Soviet Union.”
Tracey Allen, Royal Air Force News
This book is the product of seven years of research by the author, Dr Tony Redding. It includes a great deal of fresh material on V-Force weapons, war mission, targeting, vulnerabilities and tactics for attacking targets within Soviet Russia. Over 70 V-Force aircrew and ground crew were interviewed and over 300 operational research reports and other official documents reviewed. The author demonstrates how the V-bombers retained a unilateral capacity to destroy a small number of the very largest cities in the Soviet Union in the period until the handover of the strategic nuclear deterrent to the Polaris submarines in 1969.
This core retaliatory threat, centred on the destruction of Moscow and Leningrad, was judged severe enough to undermine Russia’s position in relation to the United States. In short, a few British V-bombers had the destructive capacity to destabilise the balance between the superpowers.
The book concludes that, within the first few hours, a small force of surviving V-bombers could have unleashed the explosive power of all Allied bombs dropped on Germany in six years of war.
A sobering thought and a fascinating and necessary read for all those interested in this period of history.

TEDDY PEACOCK-EDWARDS
BATTLE OF BRITAIN PILOT AND SECOND WORLD WAR ACE RICK PEACOCK-EDWARDS
The grandson of a prominent Edinburgh lawyer, and the son of a self-made farmer in South Africa and Southern Rhodesia, Teddy Peacock-Edwards was born on 27 May 1915, in Kokstad, South Africa. He was one of eleven young men from Southern Rhodesia recruited into the RAF in 1938 and thence followed a multi-varied time encompassing the full span of the Second World War.

“RPE has produced a typically entertaining read.”
This book, written by his acclaimed fighter pilot son, Rick Peacock-Edwards, describes his father’s formative years and then later covers Teddy’s experiences as a Fairey Battle pilot in France from September 1939 to June 1940 as a part of the British Expeditionary Force. The next phase of his life involved conversion to the Hurricane and as a pilot in the Battle of Britain, based at Kenley in Surrey on 253 Squadron. This period was immediately followed by an involvement in the defence of Malta in 1941, mainly as a flight commander on 261 Squadron, again equipped with Hurricanes. The story then progressively moves towards the Far East leading to a period of more than two years in Ceylon where he fought the Japanese during their Easter Sunday 1942 surprise attack on Colombo. Teddy also met his future wife, Jill, whilst in Ceylon. Wartime experiences are enhanced by reference to over 60 letters written by Teddy to his sister back in Rhodesia during the Second World War, together with many quotes from his log book.

AIRMAN, PRISONER, SAVIOUR, SPY
THE REMARKABLE STORY OF SQUADRON LEADER STANLEY
BOOKER MBE, BUCHENWALD SURVIVOR AND COLD WAR SPY
SEAN FEAST (FOREWORD BY JOHN NICHOL)
Stanley Booker volunteered for aircrew at the age of 18 and qualified as an observer, flying operations with 10 Squadron in the summer of 1944. Shot down just before D-Day, he was betrayed to the Gestapo and imprisoned in Fresnes, the notorious gaol on the outskirts of Paris, where he was subjected to a brutal interrogation and torture at the hands of the SS. His experiences troubled him for the rest of his life.
Rather than being treated as a prisoner of war, Stanley was one of 168 airmen transported to Buchenwald Concentration camp to await execution as ‘Terror Flyers’, only to be saved at the eleventh hour by the intervention of the Luftwaffe. On his ultimate return to England no-one wanted to believe where he had been or what he had seen. So began an 80-year battle with the authorities to prove what had happened, and to receive the recognition which he and his fellow prisoners were due, as well as ensuring those servicemen who had died or were murdered in the camp were properly commemorated.
After the war, Stanley flew more than 200 operations during the Berlin Airlift, aiding a nation which only a few years earlier had been intent on his elimination. He was later recruited by the Intelligence agencies in Berlin at the height of the Cold War and suffered another betrayal, this time at the hands of the traitor George Blake.
As John Nichol has written in his foreword:
“Stanley Booker’s extraordinary story is painstakingly researched and sympathetically written, providing a remarkable account of individual service and sacrifice. Even though I was shot down myself during the Gulf War in 1991, held as a prisoner of war by hostile captors, I can only begin to imagine the terrible suffering Stanley had to endure, and I marvel at his fortitude as a survivor who died in January 2025, still fighting for justice, at the remarkable age of 102.”

RAF BOYS IN THE MIDDLE EAST
TRUE STORIES OF THE RAF AIRCREW AND GROUNDCREW
EAST OF SUEZ 1918-1977
STEVE BOND
The area of responsibility for the RAF in the Middle East was vast, encompassing the whole of Arabia plus large parts of East Africa. The operational challenges were substantial, not least the frequent need to operate in and out of remote and minimally prepared desert landing grounds in areas sparsely populated by often less than friendly inhabitants. Add to the mix the Second World War, tribal uprisings and squabbles between neighbouring countries, and the RAF certainly had its work cut out.

RAF BOYS IN THE FAR EAST
9781911714286 | hb | £25.00
The RFC had a presence in the Middle East from 1914 with operational responsibility for Egypt, the Sudan and Kenya, and administrative responsibility for Palestine, Transjordan, Iraq and Aden, tasks carried on by the RAF from 1918. The critical wartime campaigns in Egypt and Libya came under RAF Middle East, and Middle East Command was absorbed into RAF Mediterranean and Middle East in 1945. Middle East Air Force (MEAF) was formed on 1 June 1949 and on 1 March 1961 it was renamed Near East Air Force (NEAF). At the same time Air Forces Middle East (AFME) was formed at Steamer Point Aden, being disbanded in 1967. To support the dwindling RAF presence in the region HQ Air Forces Gulf at Muharraq Bahrain came into being in September 1967, disbanding on 15 December 1971 following the final withdrawal from Aden.
RAF Boys in the Middle East will present the reader with a varied collection of stories from those who were there, supported by explanatory text and original black and white and colour photographs. The recollections of over 40 air and groundcrew, with some going back to pre-war years, cover a good number of the many locations, aircraft types and units which served throughout the Middle East. A step back in time to honour those veterans.

FLEET AIR ARM BOYS
VOLUME TWO: STRIKE, ANTI-SUBMARINE, EARLY WARNING AND SUPPORT AIRCRAFT SINCE 1945
TRUE TALES FROM ROYAL NAVY MEN AND WOMEN AIR AND GROUND CREW
STEVE BOND
Since the end of World War 2 the primary role of the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm has been airborne power projection; the ability rapidly to respond to any trouble spot across the globe and to protect the interests of the United Kingdom and its partner nations. The principal tools in that response were the strike aircraft which took the offensive to the aggressor. Although from 2010 to 2020 fixed-wing carrier aviation was not part of the Fleet Air Arm, with the advent of the navy’s two new aircraft carriers, HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales, that capability has been restored.
PRAISE FOR FLEET AIR ARM BOYS:
“Well up to the excellent Grub Street standard, this is a worthy addition to the series.”
Flypast, April 2021
“This book is a must buy for anyone with an interest in FAA fighter operations, naval aviation memoirs, and any fans of the Grub Street Boys series.”
Aviation News
This renewed focus has not only seen the return of flying highperformance aircraft from a carrier, but also the regeneration of the necessary skills, and courage, needed to cope with the extremes of weather and the nature of air operations in a very high-risk environment. However, the lessons of the past have not been forgotten, and so many of those previous experiences are related within these pages – true stories of the last 76 years from aircrew, maintainers, aircraft handlers and many other supporting staff both men and women.
Following on from the success of volume one, this second volume covers every fixed-wing aircraft type flown from carriers in the strike, anti-submarine warfare and the vital airborne early warning roles; from Scimitars to Sea Hawks, Buccaneers to Skyraiders and many more, plus an extensive fleet of land-based aircraft.
As with the first volume, involvement in operations such as Suez, the Beira Patrol, the Falklands, Belize, Bosnia and elsewhere is included. Despite the intensity and all-to-frequent tragedy of operations, the esprit de corps, and the ability to find the necessary release through laughter, shine through. Here are the words of the men and women themselves, profusely illustrated in black and white and colour.

STORMING WITH NORMAN
FIGHTING THE 1991 GULF WAR AS A TORNADO DETACHMENT COMMANDER
AIR COMMODORE JEREMY JOHN WITTS DSO RAF (R’TD) with SQUADRON LEADER LES HENDRY MBE RAF (R’TD)
Since 1991, many books have been written about the Gulf War. Most have dealt with the politics of the situation and many have covered the now famous ‘100-Hour’ land campaign. Despite it lasting ten times longer, few books have concentrated on the enabling air campaign, and none have dealt entirely satisfactorily with the Royal Air Force’s part in it. This book will go some way to redress the situation. By no means a definitive history of the 1991 air war, it is a gathering of personal recollections from one of the many unit commanders involved. Lacking the benefits of hindsight, it is an honest attempt to ‘tell it how it was’ and the words used and views expressed are entirely the author’s own and those of his subordinates.
As clocks in London heralded the 17th January 1991, he and his two fellow Tornado GR1 detachment commanders found themselves at the head of their respective formations, flying in total darkness, at high speed and very low level on their way to attack enemy airfields. Apart from it being their first wave of the main air war, given their extensive training in the low-level strike/ attack role in North West Europe, there should have been nothing particularly remarkable about this, except that:
• they were about to drop a type of weapon that they had never dropped before
• they were flying faster and lower than had ever been permitted in training
• unless their nav kits were completely up the creek, they were flying over a desert, far outside the NATO area, and well and truly east of Suez
Jerry died in 2020 from a debilitating neurological disease and this book was left unfinished. Several of his friends involved in the conflict have decided to complete it for him as a legacy to honour his outstanding leadership of 31 Squadron and particularly his wider command responsibilities during the Gulf War.

MASTERING THE COLD WAR JETS
IN-DEPTH INSIGHTS INTO FLYING THE HARRIER, JAGUAR, PHANTOM AND TORNADO
GEORGE ROBERTSON AND ALAN MUNRO
TALSO BY ALAN MUNRO:
hese thought-provoking first-hand accounts come from two friends, who joined the RAF together on the same day in 1963, went through basic and advanced flying training together and then followed two parallel but different careers. As the book is written jointly, you get two different perspectives on the main RAF front-line roles in the Cold War. They describe going through the RAF pilot training system in the 1960s, the aircraft they flew, and the bases they operated from. After completing advanced flying training on the Folland Gnat at RAF Valley in Anglesey they followed different paths from then on. George went to the Canberra Conversion Unit (OCU) at RAF Bassingbourne and then to RAF Luqa in Malta to fly the Canberra PR9 in the reconnaissance role. Alan to RAF Leuchars to convert on to the Gloster Javelin. George flew the Phantom FGR2 from its early days in service in the strike-attack roles with three different Phantom squadrons as both squadron pilot and flight commander. After his Javelin tour, Alan became an instructor on the Jet Provost but later came back to the front line in the air-defence role. They each have interesting views on the Phantom’s strengths and weaknesses in both roles. After completing RAF Staff College, George did a ground tour in the MoD Operational Requirements Branch in the early days of the Tornado development. Alan flew the Harrier and the Tornado and was an instructor on the NATO tactical leadership programme. George took over 6 Squadron at RAF Coltishall on the Jaguar in its early years of squadron service. After leaving the RAF they joined different airlines and continued their flying careers, having to make the transition from single-seat fighter operations to operating a large aircraft with passengers and crew. They both became specialists, George as a type rating examiner and human factors instructor and Alan as a consultant on airline safety and regulatory matters. The difficulties in transferring to civilian flying from military and the authors’ comparative experiences are discussed in detail, in this informative, entertaining and fascinating book.

THE SPITFIRE WITH NINE LIVES
THE ENTHRALLING TALE OF TE566, WRECKED, RESCUED AND REBUILT TO FLY AGAIN AIR MARSHAL G.A. ‘BLACK’ ROBERTSON
Shortly after TE566 was delivered to the RAF, it was one of several Spitfires gifted to Czechoslovakia at the end of the Second World War. Sold to Israel in 1948 and later left to rot in a kibbutz as a children’s plaything, it was rescued, recovered to England and lovingly restored. A new life on the display circuit and on film began in 1992, first in the UK and later in South Africa, where it was all but destroyed in 2002 in a fatal accident. The wreckage was bought, returned to England, then sold to an Australian aviation training institute which eventually sold it back to the previous owner. After passing through several pairs of hands, the aircraft was rebuilt once again by Colin Wills and Tom Gilbert and converted to a two-seater to fly once more.
Much more than the tale of a Spitfire’s resurrection, it’s a story about the fascinating individuals linked to TE566’s 80-year existence. Foremost among these are a heroic Czech airman and those who formed the backbone of the nascent Israeli Air Force. Many were ‘Machalniks’, overseas volunteers, not least the brilliant and daring individuals who delivered the first of Israel’s Czech Spitfires. Meeting those involved in every aspect of TE566’s globetrotting life — its challenging restorations and those who owned and flew the aircraft too — makes for an unforgettable and at times barely believable tale.
A HISTORY OF THE MEDITERRANEAN AIR WAR SERIES VOLUME SEVEN
Volume Seven covers the strategic bombing offensive from 1 July 1944 until the end of the war in May 1945. It details the increasingly heavy USAAF daylight bombing attacks against targets in southern Germany and Austria, but also the final raids against Rumanian oilfields until they fell to the advancing Soviets as the Eastern Front collapsed.
The harrowing story of the efforts to resupply the beleaguered Polish Home Army is described in full as well as continuing the story of the strategic bombing offensive. Despite many difficulties the Luftwaffe and its remaining Axis allies in Hungary and the fascist ANR in Italy fought with grim determination and courage. Losses to fighters and the highly effective flak were heavy. Later the might of the heavy bomber force was also used for direct support to the Allied armies battling their way north in Italy.
As in previous volumes the authors offer a chronological narrative of this significant campaign against the industrial capacity of the Third Reich that is complimented with a matrix of claims and losses from all sides, all shown in minute and previously unpublished detail with stunning photographs.
