5.0 out of 5 stars
A "must" for World War II military buffs.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SPITFIRES OVER SICILY: The Crucial Role of the Malta Spitfires in the Battle of Sicily, January - August 1943 (Hurricanes Over Tobruk) (Hardcover)
In 1943, British and American amphibian and airborne forces began landing in Sicily, culminating in the invasion of Sicily which took 39 days. The plan (code named Operation Husky) fixed Malta as the launching site for the fighter and fighter-bomber offensive. Spitfires Over Sicily provides a day-by-day historical account of Malta Spitfire operations during the battle of Sicily from January through August, 1943. Illustrated with 100 photographs, including the pilots, their adversaries, and the Spitfires of many of the squadrons involved, Spitfires Over Sicily is a remarkable and engaging history that is a welcome and informative contribution to the growing body of World War II literature and a "must" for military buffs.
