"The stirring story of the achievements of the Victor, told by those who flew it and fixed it . . . well illustrated with spectacular photographs.” —Oxford Mail The Handley Page Victor was the third of the three V Bombers and the most long lasting, serving in the RAF until 1993, and still doing invaluable service in the first Iraq War. Moreover, in 1982 it was only the Victor tanker fleet based on Ascension Island that made possible the Vulcan Black Buck bombing of Port Stanley airfield and the long-range reconnaissance of Argentina by Nimrods. Victor Boys tells the story of all the great things that were achieved, recounted first hand by the operators themselves, aircrew and ground crew. Starting with accounts by test pilot Johnny Allam, who undertook the major development of the aircraft, through its work as a nuclear bomber during the Cold War, testing Blue Steel in Australia, to its superb work during the Falklands War and later as a first class air-to-air refueling tanker and vital support tool for fighters and other aircraft. Published to coincide with the Victor's 60th anniversary, the gripping text is superbly illustrated with photographs from the operators themselves, never released before. The stories are collated and set in context by Tony Blackman, ex chief test pilot of Avros who helped develop the Vulcan and initiated the development of the Victor K2 tanker. For him, initially, the Victor seemed a competitor but he now readily admits what a wonderful aircraft the Victor became.

Victor Gollancz was a teacher, publisher, author and campaigner who spent his life passionately trying to make people see the truth as he saw it. If it's as a publisher that he is remembered above all, nonetheless in many ways he epitomised the social conscience of the mid-twentieth century: he founded the Left Book Club, Save Europe Now and the Campaign Against Capital Punishment. For this biography, first published in 1987, Ruth Dudley Edwards had access to all the Gollancz family and firm papers, and produced an honest, searching work which not only reveals an extraordinary man but throws light on many of the political and social events of his times. 'Frequently gripping and always readable.' John Gross, Observer 'Consistently enthralling and a brilliant achievement.' Hilary Rubinstein, Spectator 'One of the fullest and richest portraits of a contemporary individual we have had.' Anthony Curtis, Financial Times 'I would trust anyone's life to Ruth Dudley Edwards.'

Victor is an old Volkswagen bus that has been abandoned, discarded, and left alone behind an old barn in the middle of a field that has tall weeds because his owner had bought a brand-new car. Victor has many little flaws, but nothing that a little tender, loving care could not mend. Victor is very lonely and is feeling sad and unwanted. Sometimes, some little boys come by and pretend to be driving him, which makes him happy. But other times, bigger boys come by and throw rocks at him, making him feel even worse. Then one day, a tow truck comes, hooks Victor up, and pulls him down the road backward. Victor wonders where he is going. Is he being taken to a junkyard to sit with all the other unwanted cars? Is he going to be taken apart piece by piece and used as spare parts? Is he going to be crushed for scrap metal? But then, he is pulled into a garage at a nice little family home. For the next several weeks, Victor is refurbished completely. He is now being used every Sunday to pick up happy boys and girls for church. Once again, Victor is feeling useful, handsome, and happy!
