Before the Storm by Robert Jackson

On 4 September 1939, Bristol Blenheims of Nos. 107 and 110 Squadrons, RAF Bomber Command, swept low over the rain-shrouded North Sea to attack the German battle fleet off Wilhelmshaven. For Bomber Command, the raid marked the beginning of nearly five years of bloody conflict - five years that saw the Command's emergence from a nucleus of poorly-equipped, understrength squadrons into the most massive and formidable striking force in history. This is the story of three of those years, from the outbreak of hostilities in September 1939 to the end of 1942.
Robert Jackson was born in 1941, and has been a full time military writer now for thirty years. He has travelled extensively, speaks five languages, and has flown all sorts of aircraft, from jets to gliders. He lectures on pilot navigation and advises on aviation matters generally.
