Each chapter focusses on a specific year, relaying all the most fascinating highlights. Featuring varied and dynamic visual representation throughout, the events of this important decade are enlivened to great effect. RAF in Camera: 1950s is a colorful, insightful and image-packed history, told with narrative flair and a clear passion for the subject matter at hand.
