The iconic Spitfire found fame during the darkest early days of World War II. But what happened to the redoubtable fighter & its crews beyond the Battle of Britain, & why is it still so loved today?

In late spring 1940, Nazi Germany’s domination of Europe had looked unstoppable. With the British Isles in easy reach since the fall of France, Adolf Hitler was convinced that Great Britain would be defeated in the skies over her southern coast, confident his Messerschmitts & Heinkels would outclass anything the Royal Air Force threw at them.

What Hitler hadn’t planned for was the agility & resilience of a marvel of British engineering that would quickly pass into legend – the Spitfire.

Bestselling author John Nichol’s passionate portrait of this magnificent fighter aircraft, its many innovations & updates, & the people who flew & loved them, carries the reader beyond the dogfights over Kent & Sussex.

Spanning the full global reach of the Spitfire’s deployment during WWII, from Malta to North Africa & the Far East, then over the D-Day beaches, it is always accessible, effortlessly entertaining & full of extraordinary spirit.

We had returned to a different world. We had taken off in peace at nine-thirty & landed in war at noon. Jackie Moggridge was just nineteen when World War Two broke out. Determined to do her bit, she joined the Air Transport Auxiliary. Ferrying aircraft from factory to frontline was dangerous work, but there was also fun, friendship & even love in the air.

At last the world was opening up to women...or at least it seemed to be. From her first flight at fifteen to smuggling Spitfires into Burma, Jackie describes the trials & tribulations, successes & frustrations of her life in the sky.

Top-class pilots were crucial to the survival of Great Britain during the dark days of the Blitz, & playing a vital role in fending off the German attack was the women's section of the Air Transport Auxiliary, a close & dedicated circle of female pilots. In the midst of events that would shape history, these women risked their lives to ferry aircraft day & night from factory to the arena of war, & lasting friendships were born. Together, Edith Allam & her fellow pilots faced Nazi terror, class prejudice, & the forbidden romances of wartime
- yet their remarkable strength carried them through. Spitfire Girls evokes all the drama of this extraordinary period of history, & is a tribute to the heroism of these brave women, without whom the Battle of Britain might never have been won. Truly inspirational, it is a tale of adventure, courage & the relationships that define all of our lives.
