History is swamped by patriotic myths about the aerial combat fought between the RAF and the Luftwaffe over the summer of 1940. In his gripping history of the Battle of Britain, Len Deighton drew on a decade of research and his own wartime experiences to puncture these myths and point towards a more objective, and even more inspiring, truth.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The most honest attempt yet to tell how the Battle of Britain really was." (Andrew Wilson, Observer)

"Revolutionised thinking about the Battle of Britain in a way that has not been seriously challenged since." (The Times)

Enjoyable and interesting

LD always weaves an interesting tale and this nonfiction work is no exception. He also gives us some insights into the influential personalities such as Milch, Dowding, the unpleasant Leigh Mallory and Goring. Recommended!
