The Battle Of Britain by John Ray

Based on over a decade of new resarch into the Battle of Britain, this book examines Dowding's tactics in detail, relating how everyday he was under personal attack from rivals who wanted different ideas and air defences.
Dr John Ray has taught history for forty years. In 1988 he retired from a large secondary school in Kent to undertake postgraduate research on Air Chief Marshall Sir Hugh Dowding and the Battle of Britain. His subsequent book The Battle of Britain: New Perspectives, published in 1994, sought to re-examine the complicated political and military background to that most important struggle. He is author of more than thirty earlier books, mostly for secondary school students preparing for examinations.
