Whilst the country geared up for action prior to the Battle of Britain, the air forces rallied, readying the high-performance Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire fighters that were to characterize this aerial conflict so dramatically. This book focuses on the nine-month period that elapsed prior to the German attacks on British shipping in the English Channel, illustrating as it does the preparatory stages of the duel in the skies over southern England.
