Customer Reviews

Pleasantly surprised!

Charming book. Great read. Pleasantly surprised it had a chapter on Britain '50s Pinup queen Pamela Green and her Dambuster partner Doug Webb. Plus a chapter on the photographer Jean Straker. Well pleased. You can find out more about Pamela Green and Doug on her website.
