On this episode of the Authors of History Podcast I talk to Chris Wroblewski and Garth Barnard about how collaboration works when writing their book SABOTAGE !: An in-depth Investigation of the 1943 Liberator Crash that Killed Polish General Sikorski. A facinating journey into their love of History, trying to solve the mysterious death of a Polish General and working in collaboration.

Chris Wroblewski has been fascinated with aircraft and Second World War aviation history. Over a 36-year career as a licensed Canadian aircraft maintenance engineer, he has amassed experience on a range of aircraft and worked for commercial and private aviation companies. From 1992 to 1994 he served as director of maintenance for the Great War Flying Museum in Brampton Ontario. Currently he is studying part-time for a military history degree at University of Calgary and was published in the 2009 winter edition of on spec magazine. Chris lives in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Garth Barnard Garth Barnard’s interest in aviation stems from a lifelong passion and unshakeable resolve to investigate the deaths of thousands of young airmen during the Second World War. He began his research in 2000 and by 2003 created aviationresearch.co.uk to document the operational training units of Bomber Command across south Northamptonshire, north-east Oxfordshire, and north-west Buckinghamshire. From 2012 to 2014 Garth was investigator and presenter for six episodes of WW2 Air Crash Detectives which aired on Yesterday Channel.
