Sticky Murphy Lover of Life: Second World War Clandestine Lysander and Intruder Mosquito pilot Wing Commander Alan Michael ‘Sticky’ Murphy DSO and Bar, DFC, Croix de Guerre Hardcover – February 28, 2019

What a man, what a book !

The story of a man who flew challenging raids and flew Lysanders at night to France in support of SOE and Mosquitos in Malta fascinating.

This book gives the impression that it is about the life of Sticky Murphy. Well that is a bit thin to say the least. Yes there are bits about him, but not much detail about his operations as most people would expect. A lot of this book is taken up with his friends stories or Squadron history chapters. Disappointed in this book.
