This book is the fourth in the series written by Laurie Woods DFC .

Woods was a RAAF bomb aimer flying in Lancasters with Bomber Command 460 Sqn. This book records an explanation of Laurie's 'old friend' the Lancaster Bomber and also his last mission flying with Bomber Command before the end of WW2.

The book by large, records his interesting life after the war which of course in many ways was influenced by the war and memories. The book illustrates the post war reality of many veterans in that they continued to reminisce about the events of war service.
