The moving story of one man's confrontation with the brutal truths of war.
Originally published anonymously in 1941, this was the first and finest story of a fighter pilot in WW2. Based on the author's personal journal, it is the classic account of the part played by RAF No.1 Squadron in the air battles that preceded the fall of France in 1940.
Beginning on the day the squadron arrived in France, the book recounts the unnerving lull of the 'Sitzkrieg' and the sudden crescendo of violence and crushing fatigue of almost non-stop combats during the 'blitzkrieg'.
