Natural Selection: The Battle of Britain and the Blitz is the third installment in The Protocols series, a series chronicling the rise and impact of authoritarianism in the modern era. Natural Selection focuses on the second half of 1941 and the first half of 1942 -- the period known as the Battle of Britain and the Blitz. Like all the books in the series, Natural Selection is the continuing story of people caught in events. It is composed of carefully annotated excerpts taken from letters, memoirs, diaries, situation reports, radio transcripts, and other historical documents selected not only for their ability to illuminate the past, but for their relevance in terms of the times in which we live.

As a historian and author, Herron views history not as a static record but as a living continuum—a story in which the past and present are woven together in the consciousness of those willing to look deeply. The Protocols series is his effort to chronicle the rise and impact of authoritarianism in the modern era, illuminating how the currents of power, fear, and hope move through time.

In these pages, the past is not merely behind us. It is a mirror and a doorway.
