I love a book about lost or obscure history, especially when it comes to women's history. Spitfires is a really awesome, modern attention-grabbing work that brings some work, and women, that history nearly forgot to the fore. These folks performed a vital job under harrowing circumstances, and it was an absolutely fascinating account.
My one qualm with this was that, on audio, I did occasionally find myself a little lost in regards to matching up dates and person, because it's not exactly a linear recounting.
