Book Reviews of Battle of Hamburg: Allied Bomber Forces Against a German City in 1943

Book Review: Recognizes the Polish Contribution to the War Effort
Summary: 5 Stars

This book provides much detail about the bombing of Hamburg. For instance, those German civilians who went to basements all perished in the main firestorm area. But those who went to shelters with gas and smoke-tight doors had a good chance of survival. As an American of Polish descent, I appreciate the fact that Middlebrook recognizes the skill of Polish pilots and mechanics. He also notes the fact that the Poles were not to return to a free Poland, thanks to (western-permitted) Soviet domination.
