Book
The Battle of Britain
The Battle of Britain examines the air campaign fought over Britain in 1940 after the fall of France. It explains German plans for air superiority, the organisation of RAF Fighter Command, radar and the Dowding system, and the changing targets attacked by the Luftwaffe. The book follows the principal phases of the battle and the experience of pilots and civilians, showing why Germany failed to eliminate British air resistance or secure the conditions for invasion.
