It was a crucial moment of WW2. 1940. The Royal Air Force virtually alone defended the skies of Britain against massed formations of German bombers. They put up such a ferocious defence that Hitler gave up ideas of invading Britain and turned his attention to an assault on the Soviet Union. Of those pilots who courageously flew their Spitfires and Hurricanes against the Luftwaffe barely a handful remain. However the authors have interviewed no less than eighteen survivors and it is their memories and anecdotes that make this book unique. Highly illustrated throughout... with rarely seen images Battle of Britain is packed with great stories of aerial combat and being shot down of the classic fighters that they flew and fought in and against of making and losing friends and colleagues; of a strained social life in the midst of battle; and most of all of standing steadfast in the face of overwhelming odds. It is coupled with an authoritative and lively narrative. [show more]
