This is the definitive biography of one of the most controversial figures of the Second World War.Sir Arthur Harris remains the target of criticism and vilification by some, while others believe that the contribution he and his men made to the Allied victory is grossly undervalued. In particular, Harris has been questioned for his area bombing tactics which saw civilians and their homes become legitimate targets along with industrial and military installations. This is explored by the author and placed fully within its context, and, just as importantly, within the instructions he received from Churchill's administration.Henry Probert's critical but highly sympathetic account draws on wide-ranging research and, for the first time, all of Harris own papers, to give an outstanding insight into a man who combined leadership, professionalism and decisiveness with kindness, humor and generosity.
