The B-24 Liberator may not have had the publicity and glamour of its contemporary, the Boeing B-17, but it was produced in far greater numbers and served all over the globe as a bomber, transport and long-range anti-submarine airplane. Martin W. Bowman examines the career of the B-24 Liberator, from its design in 1939 through all theatres of World War Two to the present, where a precious few airframes survive. With over 200 rare photographs this is a detailed and absorbing book on a significant airplane.
