Dilip knows more about me and the pilots with whom I flew during the Battle of Britain than we do. If anyone ever needs to know anything about the RAF during the summer of 1940, don't ask the Few, ask him' GEORGE GRUMPY' UNWIN, Battle of Britain fighter ace. Over 50 historic photographs, most originate from the personal albums of Battle of Britain veterans and have never been reproduced before. Author has interviewed more Battle of Britain pilots than any other historian The legendary legless fighter ace' Douglas Bader once said that the Battle of Britain was not won by a few aces, but by the average squadron pilot who collectively did their bit.' One of those men, Peter Fox, described himself and his fellows as mere also rans' - but clearly, without them, Fighter Command could not have prevailed. In this book, Dilip Sarkar relates their stories, researched through personal interviews, correspondence and contemporary archive material.
