A Nice Change go an RAF Propaganda Story

Good characters and moves at a pace that keeps one interested. And unlike all those seemingly thousands of books written about the RAF, it doesn't try to make it look as if the RAF one WWII singlehandedly.

[Shaun Rogers]

Terrific story - told at pace - strong ,authentic and believable characters. A page turner. I could not put The Pathfinder down.
