Aviation Artist ANTHONY SAUNDERS - Anthony possesses a superb grasp of the speed and power required when portraying scenes of aerial combat and will spend many hours researching every composition to ensure that it is historically and technically correct in every detail. His ability to bring to life breath-taking skyscapes and machines of aerial combat with the rich colours of oil means that Anthony is without doubt one of the industry's most exciting artists and his talents are clear to see in his new book WINGS OF WAR.
Squadron Leader GEORGE ‘JOHNNY’ JOHNSON DFM - ‘Johnny’ is the last surviving RAF veteran of the famous Dambusters Raid. On the night of 16/17 May 1943 he was Bomb-Aimer on Lancaster AJ-T which attacked the Sorpe Dam. After several dummy runs, he scored a direct hit and for his actions that night ‘Johnny’ was awarded the DFM. Having known Anthony for many years, ‘Johnny’ recently wrote the Foreword to his new book WINGS OF WAR and signed the print featured in the special editions, KING OF THE AIR.
