This "Man-at Arms" book gives the WWII RAF the once over. It gives a brief overview of the various uniforms, flying clothing and equipment of the pilots and crew, as well as those of the RAF ground crews. The book gives brief written descriptions accompanied by photographs of some of the items. The real treat are the Ron Volsted illustrations. Between the world wars the main task of the RAF was to crush tribal rebellions against British rule. This study, based almost entirely on unpublished documents, shows how the independent peacetime role of air policing ensured the survival of the RAF during the lean financial times after WWI. Its analysis of rebellion and imperial violence is of interest to a broad audience.
