Although Adrian Warburton (known to all as Warby) became one of the most highly decorated pilots of World War II, he began his military career as a below-average misfit with 22 Squadron of Coastal Command and was sent to Malta to avoid trouble in the UK. Known at first as a loner, when given his command, the spectacular results he achieved enabled his unconventional behavior to be over-looked. Fearless in the air, the maverick ace shot down nine enemy aircraft and won fame in Malta for his invaluable photo reconnaissance work at Taranto, Sicily and North Africa. On April 12th, 1944 Warburton departed in an aircraft on an unusual mission over Europe. Both plane and pilot disappeared without trace, giving rise to a host of rumors that his disappearance was intentional. For almost 60 years the mystery remained unsolved, until a painstaking international search unearthed the truth. Based on interviews with nearly 150 of Warby's colleagues, and updated by historian Chris Goss with recently unearthed information, Warburton's War paints a picture of a fascinating man, who with 350 operational missions from Malta alone became a living legend and an enigma among the aces of WWII. Ref A4 4. Signed by Author(s).

First edition hard back binding in publisher's original navy cloth covered boards, blocked and lettered gilt back. 8vo. 9½'' x 6¼''. Years of speculation about Warburton's fate came to an end in 2002, when his remains were found with his aircraft, buried about 2 yards deep in a field near the Bavarian village of Egling an der Paar, 34 miles west of Munich. According to witnesses, the aircraft fell there on 12 April 1944, around 11:45. One of the propellers had bullet holes in it, which suggests that Warburton had been shot down. Contains 222 pp with monochrome archive photographs throughout. Fine condition book in in near Fine condition dust wrapper with light rubbing across the spine ends, not price clipped. SIGNED by the author to the title page 'To Harry Kirk - who was also there (see next page) With best regards Tony Spooner | November 1987'. A unique signed copy to Harry Kirk, reference is being made to the RAF's defence of the strategically important defence of the Maltese Islands. There is a typed correction laid in by Kirk as follows 'I asked Warby if he ever saw a camel train' Tony altered it to read that I asked Warby 'What was a camel train' | pp 66 has another paper laid-in 'This should read that I asked Warby if he ever saw any camel trains on his trips along the African coast' Dust wrapper supplied in archive acetate film protection.
