About this book:
The abrupt end of the Pacific War prevented the RAF’s new Avro Lincoln from ever being used in its intended combat role, but it served on for over 20 years as Britain’s last piston bomber. The Lincoln saw active service in guerrilla wars in Kenya, Aden, and Malaya; served as a long-range maritime patrol craft for Britain and Australia; and its sturdy frame was the basis for numerous experiments with new engines and armaments. 176 page hardcover book with 230 black & white illustrations and 24 maps.
