The thrilling, little-known story of the partner organization to the famous code-breaking center at Bletchley Park
This is the story of the daring reconnaissance pilots who took aerial photographs over Occupied Europe during the most dangerous days of World War II, and of the photo interpreters who invented a completely new science to analyze those pictures. They were inventive and ingenious; they pioneered the development of 3-D photography and their work provided vital intelligence throughout the war. With a whole host of larger-than-life characters at its heart, from the legendary pilot Adrian "Warby" Warburton, who went missing while on a mission, to photo interpreters Glyn Daniel, later a famous television personality, and Winston Churchill's daughter, Sarah, this history is compelling reading, and the first full account of the story of aerial photography and the intelligence gleaned from it in nearly 50 years.
