In The Battle of Britain for the first time, James Holland tells this most epic of stories from a 360° perspective – when the fate of the world truly hung by a thread.
The Nazi Blitzkrieg was unlike any invasion the world had ever seen. It hit Europe with a force & aggression that no-one could counter. Within weeks the German armies were at the French coast & looking across at Britain. It seemed impossible that she would be able to resist invasion.
Between the Nazis & glory stood an apparently fragile defence, but the men & women of Fighter, Bomber & Coastal Commands & the Royal Navy would not be cowed. Their heroics that summer would go down in history.
