The Battle of Britain The Greatest Air Battle of World War II, by Richard Hough and Denis Richards (read 26 Dec 2009) I have read great books by Richard Hough and so expected this to be a good book. But it is apparently designed for people who were in the Battle or know somebody who was. Thus it is full of names and details of individual exploits--thoroughly obscuring the forest by telling about the trees. The account of what leading Britons and nazis thought and did is good, but one has to slog through lots of personal details to get the overall story. Definitely a disappointing book sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
High above the warm, summer fields Churchill's 'few' fought with courage & skill against overwhelming odds - and won. A vivid account of the air battles as well as an explanation of how the campaign developed. Fresh insights into the controversies with the aid of original material as well as recollections of many of the surviving air crew & ground staff. Vividly illustrated with many photographs. Denis Richards, co-author of the official history of RAF operations in World War Two, and Richard Hough, the historian and biographer, have collaborated to write this magnificent new account for the general reader; as well as offering vivid descriptions of the air fighting. It explains with great authority how both sides developed their air forces in the inter-war years, a necessary prelude to a true understanding of the Battle itself. It provides fresh insights into the controversies of the time and makes use of original material derived from interviews and correspondence with over three hundred surviving air-crew and ground staff.
