Battle Of Britain Manual

The defeat of the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain was thanks to the highly effective support network that lay behind the RAFs Spitfire and Hurricane squadrons. Scientific technical and organisational systems established in Britain before the war ensured that the nation was ready and able to defend itself against any would-be aggressor. Andy Saunders describes and illustrates the nuts and bolts of how Britain and the RAF in particular fought back against the Luftwaffe in 1940 and won. It also shows how the Luftwaffe was organised and how it too rose to the challenge.
