The bombing campaign to destroy Hitler's Nazi Germany was waged by Allied flyers from not only England and the US, but also with many Australian men like Ray Ollis. Flying as a navigator, Ray was assigned to 101 Squadron operating the famed Lancaster bomber, fitted with the latest electronic warfare measures.
Ray Ollis's lightly fictionalised record of his own experiences flying over the heart of Germany at night provides a gripping account of this critical phase of history.
101 Nights is a remarkably accurate depiction of a Bomber Command station at war. With the special nature of 101 Squadron thrown in, the novel is that much more compelling.
A forgotten classic, first published by Cassell in 1957, this new edition includes editor Robert Brokenmouth's essay on the book, the author, and significant history, along with notes on the text.
