Book excerpt: This tale is about a time and place when Great Britain in the aftermath of WWII stood on the brink of a postwar boom in aviation with ground breaking innovations in design and manufacture to take on the world. Confronted in on all sides by political and marketing concerns; as fierce competition from US sources threatened the very foundations that had been nurtured and developed by the exigencies of war. When UK planemakers sought overseas markets for world beating airliners, fighters and freighters to go head to head with America's finest. Their Wall Street backers who'd go to any lengths to protect their investments and steal a march on the competition in a dog eat dog world of backbiting, big bucks and winner takes all. By a writer who saw it all as it happened in living colour.
