The Final Few by Dilip Sarkar

The Final Few by Dilip Sarkar

The extraordinary personal stories of five surviving Battle of Britain pilots

‘If anyone ever needs to know anything about the RAF during the summer of 1940, don’t ask the Few, ask Dilip’ * George ‘Grumpy’ Unwin, 19 Squadron *
‘Dilip understands perfectly the mysteries of air tactics and strategy, enabling him to write authoritative, lively and deeply touching stories of those days when friend and foe met in the air’ * Peter Townsend, 85 Squadron *

Dilip Sarkar has been fascinated by the Battle of Britain since childhood, he remains both moved and inspired by the story of Churchill's fabled Few, those young airmen who stood between freedom and a Britain dominated by Nazi Germany. Since the 1970s he has met and interviewed more Battle of Britain pilots than any other historian. He has researched the subject thoroughly and has published over thirty books, titles which include the only biographical works formally endorsed by the families of both Group Captain Sir Douglas Bader and Air Vice-Marshal Johnnie Johnson. In 2003, Dilip was made an MBE for services to aviation history, and elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Historical Society in 2006. He lives in Worcester.
