Originally by me actually
There is a book on this very subject (although heavily covering U.S. flights) that is a superb read. It is "By any means necessary". Sadly I do not have it to hand at the moment, so cannot list the ISBN number, but am sure is is on amazon or similar.

With regard to the above post, I had wondered if the book had been re- published with a different title, as I distinctly remembered it being "necessary"

Further on the subject of special Canberra's, the "great planes" series of videos do a good video (IMHO) titled "Martin B57 Canberra". This video/DVD partly covers the U.S. "spy" Canberra's with larger span wings, and then their second lease of life with even greater span wings fitted.
