The Bomber Command Memorial book

[Andy Wright]

Hi chaps

This is due to be launched in March with publication in November so it can include material from the grand opening of the memorial in Hyde Park in June. Steve Darlow and Fighting High Publishing are putting it together and will be including interviews, photos and profiles of some of the veterans who attend the opening ceremony as well as the planning and building of the memorial.

There will be a pre-order offer soon with 10 GBP from each sale going to the memorial. When the book goes on general sale in November all royalties will go to the appeal.

More detail at the link but promises to be an important work at a reasonable price.

The books are on their way. My friend Ian (who is in New Zealand) has told me his has arrived... Must be working backwards through the alphabet because mine hasnt yet... If you havent ordered yet there is an opportunity (for an extra cost) to buy one with a special slip cover (I managed to upgrade before they started going out!)....well worth it I gather from those who have received theirs!
