The Few Summer 1940, the Battle of Britain

More than sixty years ago, in a decisive moment, those whom Churchill so famously addressed as the "few" thwarted Hitler's planned invasion of England. Over 160 graphic images and riveting testimony by Allied and Luftwaffe pilots, ground crew, and civilians paint a panoramic portrait of this confrontation. "The best sort of popular military history"--Times Literary Supplement. "Worthwhile and refreshing...a fantastic job...I recommend both to anyone moderately interested in this key period of history and to the scholar more familiar with the battle. Attractive and informative...certainly...a welcome addition to any library on the Battle of Britain."--Aerospace Power Journal.
