Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sky was suddenly very crowded, bullets being sprayed in every direction. I picked out a Heinkel 111 and squirted it with bullets and saw its starboard engine smoking. The sky was suddenly quite empty as though a hand had wiped it clean erasing all the furious, metal craft around me. It was time to return. The Battle of Britain was the RAF's finest hour. Peter R. March has created a memorable "yearbook" on this pivotal campaign, using contemporary and historical accounts to tell the story through the eyes of those who took part. Illustrated with contemporary photographs as well as a stunning color section showcasing the best of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, this beautiful book commemorates the pivotal summer of 1940.
