The definitive book on the Battle of britain,
By
This review is from: Battle of Britain (Hardcover)
I write this on September 18th 2005, the 65th anniversary of the battle. A memorial is unveiled today on Londons Victoria embankment "honouring the few". In 1940 France had fallen and Britain stood alone. Arguably it was the turning point in modern history. It was 2353 brave men of the RAF and 574 from The Commonwealth ( yes, including New Zealand) and other countries that changed European history.For nearly one in five pilots it was their last summer.
This is 'the' book on the Battle of Britain.The book details every single pilot, squadron, aircraft and airfield. It illustrates and details the graves, memorials, crash sites and pilots of both RAF and Luftwaffe during the battle.Twenty famous aerodromes are explored "then and now", the now being 1980 when the book was published and the airfields were overgrown then. The book honours the brave men of both sides of the conflict who then, as pilots do now, did what was asked of them. What more can i say.
