The Battle of Britain

‘No individual British victory after Trafalgar was more decisive in challenging the course of a major war than was the Battle of Britain … In his carefully argued, clearly explained and impressively documented book … Richard Overy is at pains to dispose of the myths and expose the real history of what he does not doubt was a great British victory … the best historical analysis in readable form which has yet appeared on this prime subject’ Noble Frankland, The Times Literary Supplement
