520 $a"Collier's chronicle of the Battle of Britain, drawing heavily on eyewitness accounts from RAF and Luftwaffe combatants, gives a compelling account of history in the making. Over the English Channel, across southern Britain, and into the heart of the savagely fought confrontation, go where the commanders made their decisions, along with those who fought and experienced this tumultuous time. Trace the course of actions as they unfolded between August and mid-September 1940 -- a brief period that helped determine the world's fate."--Amazon.com.
