St Mary's Books is proud to present this 1979 first edition of "Their Flarepath the Moon" by Richard Townshend Bickers. Housed in its original dark blue dustjacket featuring a photograph of an aeroplane, this hardback book is bound in dark blue faux leather with gold gilt lettering to the spine. Inside, one finds 220 pages of text. Within the pages of this book, the reader is treated to the fascinating story of two young pilots of contrasting character and service who are posted to the same squadron and come into conflict. Set against the background of the often overlooked highly specialised and secret operations of the Second World War, this story "tells what it was really like to fly a Hampden, a Battle, a Blenheim, a Spitfire, or a Lysander on those dangerous and varied types of operation". This copy is in very good condition - the original dustjacket has been preserved in a plastic cover, and though there is a "Withdrawn from Cambridgeshire Libraries" stamp on the front free endpaper, this copy remains bright, clean and readable. "Their Flarepath the Moon" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any aviation enthusiast.
