Review Quotes: "The high value [of this collection] comes from its clear division into four major chapters, which include highly empirical and analytical contributions, as well as the concise and readable introduction . . . In Bombing, States and Peoples in Western Europe 1940-1945, the editors have presented a cross-section of recent research into the "air war", which will be useful to anyone in the academic sector." --Jörg Arnold, University of Nottingham, H-Soz-u-Kult (Bloomsbury translation)
