SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE WEEK

The Battle of Britain

by Roy Conyers Nesbit

Rather than concentrate solely on the exploits of RAF Fighter Command, this fascinating book, with many rarely published photographs, tells the wider story of the Battle of Britain. This includes the Luftwaffe's viewpoint and the contributions made to the victory by Bomber and coastal commands; and the British aircraft industry's efforts to supply the RAF with desperately needed fighter aircraft.

Lavishly illustrated in colour and black and white, Roy Nesbit brings us a very broad, picture-led narrative, drawing on a range of private and museum sources to illustrate the course of this legendary air battle.

£21 (rrp S25)
