Fighter Boys by Patrick Bishop
In the summer of 1940, the future of Britain and the free world depended on the morale and skill of the young men of Fighter Command. This is their story.‘I know of no more thoughtful nor yet more moving study of their achievement’ Max Hastings, Sunday Telegraph
‘A living, breathing monument to the fighter boys.’ Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday
‘As a vivid chronicle of who the Battle of Britain pilots were, what motivated them, and why they were ultimately successful, “Fighter Boys” is unsurpassed.’ Daily Telegraph
‘No one reading this book can possibly doubt the heroism of those involved…there can’t be a finer history.’ James Holland, New Statesman
‘Powerful yet restrained, at times almost unbearably touching.’ T. J. Binyon, Evening Standard
