We have just acquired a significant book collection from the family of RAF historian and author Robert Wright. 'Bob' Wright was Hugh Dowding's personal assistant during the Battle of Britain and wrote his biography. He also co wrote Nightfighter with Jimmy Rawnsley. In Nov 1944, whilst serving as a radar operator on 85 Sqn (alongside John Cats-Eyes Cunningham) the Mosquito he was in crashed. The pilot died but Bob survived and he became a member of the Guinea Pig club under the surgeon Archibald McIndoe. Bob Wright also became assistant to Keith Park in the Middle East for a time and for Sholto Douglas, who he again wrote a biography for. Bob was also a technical advisor on the Battle of Britain Movie in 1969. We will be listing some of his books over a period of time. Most of them were used for his own personal research and  many contain underlined paragraphs by Bob, with the odd comment thrown in. Many of the books are signed and dedicated to Bob by the author whom he knew personally. A number of the books are a bit worn and musty through use but they were often working documents and research tools for Bob. There are some rare titles and signatures and some are signed by Bob himself ( a rare signature in his own right ). Steve may remarque some of the books to add collectability even further. A proportion of any sales from this collection will go towards the continual restoration of RAF Snaith museum. Pllease keep an eye on the special Robert Wright Book Collection category for these special books.
