Notes
This book is partly biographic of Trenchard, partly about the formation of the RAF from the merging of the RFC and the RNAS. Both aspects were , of course, closely connected. So this is a good reference source about these events, and the man who many credit for them. The book was originally published in the United States in 2024 by the Naval Institute Press.
