A visceral account of the white-knuckled bombing mission carried out on Hitler’s hometown.
In April 1945, Linz was one of Nazi Germany’s most vital assets: a crucial transportation hub and communications centre, its railyards brimming with war materiel destined for the front lines. Linz was also the town Hitler claimed as home. Inevitably, it was one of the most heavily defended targets remaining in Europe.
In their unheated, unpressurized B‑24 Liberator and B‑17 Flying Fortress heavy bombers, the young men of the US Fifteenth Air Force battled elements as dangerous as anything the Germans could throw at them. When batteries of German anti‑aircraft guns did open fire, the men flew into a man‑made hell of exploding shrapnel.
Drawing on interviews with dozens of surviving World War II veterans and residents of Linz, as well as previously unpublished sources, Mike Croissant compellingly relates one of the war’s last truly untold stories – a gripping chronicle of warfare and a timeless tale of courage and terror, loss and redemption.
With a foreword by Richard Overy, author of The Bombers and the Bombed
