The pre-war bomber soon found its abilities not only overtaken by the four-engined 'heavies', but also seriously challenged by single-engined fighters which could carry large loads at much higher speeds over medium ranges. The supreme load-carrier was the version of the Lancaster modified to carry the giant 'Grand Slam' bomb. This book covers the evolution of the bomber during World War 2 and its various uses to provide in depth knowledge accompanied by hand drawn illustrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of the sought after Blandford Colour Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThis item is in \u003cb\u003eGood \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003econdition.
