adventurous inspiring medium-paced

5.0

SPITFIRE ATTACK begins with the author's account of his receiving his wings as a newly minted Sergeant Pilot in the Royal Air Force (RAF) on June 14th, 1940 (the same day the Germans entered Paris, after it had been declared an open city by the French government) and his subsequent posting to a fighter squadron. He would later see action during the Battle of Britain and on the Mediterranean island of Malta when it was under siege by the Axis Powers during a critical period of the war when Britain maintained a precarious hold in North Africa and the Mediterranean.

This is the kind of book any aviation enthusiast will enjoy reading, complete with photos.
