The Most Dangerous Enemy: A History of the Battle of Britain
The one thing the reviewer mentioned was in the book and I disagree, even if UK could out produce the aircraft, they where short on experienced pilots. At least the RAF realized this and opened up to anyone, and UK has always acknowledged this vital contribution. It was a near thing. |

IMHO James Holland's new book on the Battle of Britain is a bit better, but this is defo a valid read.

This one. The main part of the book focuses on a day by day account of sorties, fights, kills etc. You get a real sense of how the battle is progressing.
There is much more to it though, it's a big book with good photos and drawings, and it is a very enjoyable read. http://www.google.se/imgres?imgurl=h...-aD8LsObT-hOQG Sample: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/1856...tu#reader-link

Great info, thanks for the contribution to the community guys.
While this is not a strictly BOB book, I found it's broad overview of the Luftwaffe very valuable in understanding the course of events during the war, and how intricately the fate of the Luftwaffe was linked to the fate of Nazi Germany. And it's free.......http://www.ebookee.com/Strategy-for-...45_288063.html Last edited by BadAim; 10-06-2010 at 11:37 PM. |

Read many books and I found this one quite interesting, as long as you need general information and not the feelings of a pilot:
