STRIKE AND RETURN
by Robert Taylor

A CLASSIC NEW ROBERT TAYLOR MASTERWORKLIMITED EDITION COMMEMORATING THE INDOMITABLE AIRCREWSOF RAF BOMBER COMMAND

“I stood on the end of the runway at RAF Binbrook during the filming of the Memphis Belle and gazed over the ageless, beautiful Lincolnshire landscape. It was easy to visualize the Lancasters of 460 Squadron returning home, battle-worn and tired as they would have done some fifty years earlier, and to imagine the emotions of the crews as they brought their mighty Lancasters back to this famous wartime base.” – Robert Taylor
