Extracts from press reviews of

THE FORGOTTEN FEW

'Zamoyski's affectionate tribute is both disarmingly honest and impressively researched. The result is a fascinating and superbly told story.'
Antony Beevor, The Daily Telegraph

'Adam Zamoyski has written a moving book full of lively anecdotes and memories, but also of sharp insights into political, military and especially wartime social and cultural history. Its striking achievement is to make vivid the characters of these forgotten few and their post-war fate.'
Mark Almond, The Sunday Telegraph

'Zamoyski handles the story with the verve and wit we have come to expect of him.'
The Times

'Adam Zamoyski treats his subject not with the heavy hand of military scholarship, but generally with a light and easy touch. He deserves our thanks for writing such an absorbing account of what the Polish Air Force achieved from its fighter and bomber bases in a battered Britain.'
The Catholic Herald

'In spite of the great betrayal and the enormity of Polish suffering and sacrifice, Zamoyski's is an incredibly colourful and humorous book detailing many heroic, bizarre and funny exploits.' Cencrastus

'Anyone interested in flying - or in sheer human courage and dedication - is sure to enjoy this book, which is remarkable for its balance as well as for the thrilling, tragic story it tells.' Country Life

'Adam Zamoyski tells a marvellous and often humorous adventure story, full of bravery, commitment, pride, and determination.'
Joseph Kotarba, The Sarmatian Review

'Jak pisze autor, nie bylo jego zamiarem napisanie pelnej historii lotnictwa polskiego. Niemniej, ksiazka jego jest miniatura historyczna w jak najszerszym tego slowa znaczeniu. To, ze jest to miniatura, a nie sucha historia, daje latwosc czytania.' Tydzien Polski.
