Written by a Spitfire pilot who served at readiness and in combat throughout the Battle of Britain this book contains his personal observations of the war during 1939-1940. This, combined with many years of research, has produced a penetrating review of the Battle with many old myths dispelled. The Battle of Britain was won in 1940 by the squadrons of Fighter Command under the leadership of Air Chief Marshal Dowding who was given no public honor or recognition for this great achievement in saving Britain from Nazi invasion and occupation - here now is a searching and advanced review which justifies Dowding's place of honor in British history.
