RAF COLLEGE CRANWELL“Bibliography”
Reference Material that relates to Cranwellian Heritage
INTRODUCTIONDuring its 100 years of operation, the RAF College has trained nearly 30,000 individuals, most of whom have gone on to excel in careers with the RAF, in industry and in private commerce, whether in peacetime, at times of international crisis or in war. Many have taken to print to recount their own perceptions or to honour the contributions from RAF personnel who were unable or opted not to do so.
In researching the data to support the creation of the Cranwellian Historical Society’s (CHS) Albums, the author has had the pleasure, indeed the privilege, to assimilate the ‘raw data’ archived at the College with professional outputs in the public domain created by a wealth of inspired RAF personnel, military historians and biographers.
This album is an adjunct to the core CHS albums, nominating a selection of works in the public domain and inviting the reader to complete his own research on our fabulous history and the people who contributed to it. It is by no means a complete listing, but is a humble offering to act as a start point for those with the enthusiasm, interest and passion to study in more depth the RAF College’s Heritage.
