Inhalt/Klappentext
In this book, which combines historical accuracy with vivid description, will be found the stories of both the famous and forgotten aces of the R.A.F.
The campaign covered by E.C.R. Baker are those of the Western Desert, Greece, Burma, Malta and the battle won by the "few" over the fields and towns of England.
It is also the story of the aces who scored their first kills in the early battles in France before Dunkirk and of the hunters who pursued and fought the Germans over their own territory in the latter part of the war.
They were an intrepid band of pilots who went out in their Hurricanes, Spitfires, Beaufighters and Mosquitos to take on the might of the Luftwaffe in the quiet stillness of the night.
