Rate this book
Operation Big Ben was one of the best kept secrets of World War II. Through Squadron histories, log books, official reports, and interviews with the people who flew clipped winged Spitfire to dive-bomb V1 and V2 rocket sights towards the end of the war, the story is at last fully told.

This book includes detailed squadron histories as well as clear details of the strategies employed and missions executed by the Spitfire squadrons that flew them. It also has firsthand recollections of the men who completed the dive-bombing raids, and the cutting edge technology they used.
