This is a hugely enjoyable and interesting book to read. It covers a topic that may be well known but it is often overlooked. The author has conducted superb research as he notes small details such as the placement of badges in slightly different positions on airframes and uniform details such as insignia worn and styles of uniform. If you are wanting to know about Polish airmen and their activities in the Battle of Britain, then you must read this book. The author’s work and this photographic collection is simply outstanding.

Detailed Military book looking the origins of this conflict and the build up after Munich agreement to the 1st September and the false promises given by British and French governments and under resourced Polish forces. Found this book very interesting.
