Battle Of Britain – Magazine and DVD set

It was a crucial moment of WWII - 1940. The Royal Air Force, virtually alone, defended the skies of Britain against massed formations of German bombers. They put up such a ferocious defence that Hitler gave up ideas of invading Britain and turned his attention to an assault on the Soviet Union. Of those pilots who courageously flew their Spitfires and Hurricanes against the Luftwaffe barely a handful remain. However the authors have exclusively interviewed many of the survivors and it is their memories and anecdotes that make this book unique. Included is the DVD Voices of The Battle of Britain featuring many of the filmed interviews with Battle of Britain pilots which are combined with powerful archive film to tell the story of the Battle of Britain in their own words.
