A gripping military history title, Mosquito at War chronicles the remarkable combat career of the de Havilland Mosquito, one of the most versatile and celebrated aircraft of the Second World War. Author Chaz Bowyer draws on firsthand accounts and operational records to present a vivid and authoritative portrait of the aircraft in action across every theatre of the conflict. The narrative details the Mosquito's legendary speed and adaptability, serving roles as a bomber, night fighter, pathfinder, and low-level precision strike aircraft with equal distinction. Written with the precision of a seasoned aviation historian, the book illustrates both the technical brilliance of the machine and the courage of the men who flew it. With a foreword by Sir Max Aitkin, Bart, DSO, DFC — himself a distinguished wartime pilot — this volume stands as an essential record for anyone with a passion for RAF history and wartime aviation.
