Sourced from a remarkable cache of twelve uncirculated copies, this volume is in immaculate, brand-new condition. The glossy, laminated pictorial boards remain brilliant and entirely unrubbed, completely lacking any shelf-wear, scuffing, or bumping to the corners and spine ends. The binding is exceptionally tight and square, indicative of an unread copy. Internally, the text block is bright and clean, with the pages remaining crisp and completely free from any foxing, inscriptions, or toning. A pristine, untouched example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCatalogue Note:\u003c\/b\u003e First edition.

Published to coincide with the tenth anniversary of the branch's founding, the volume gathers intensely personal accounts of aerial combat, camaraderie, and sacrifice from those who flew in the most harrowing theatres of the Second World War. Enhanced by a foreword from William Reid V.C., it stands as a lasting testament to the bravery and enduring spirit of Bomber Command and associated wartime aircrew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Broadhursts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54618395672915,"sku":"5125","price":27.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/1469\/6787\/files\/20260811_130657.jpg?v=1787040775","url":"https:\/\/broadhurstsbooks.com\/products\/high-endeavours-keith-walters-editor-1st-edition","provider":"Broadhursts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
