Most Battle of Britain authors pay little attention to October 1940, in fact, there is one recently published 96 page book that devotes just one paragraph to the entire month!

These final weeks of the Battle of Britain are therefore little known and the combats have mainly gone unrecorded.

This book finally puts the record straight with a full and comprehensive account of every combat that took place during the final nine days of the Battle.  So comprehensive in fact, that we had to increase the extent in this final volume to 160 pages.

With the usual blend of first hand accounts and all original research, using contemporary documents from both sides, author Simon Parry and his team of experts have gone beyond where most Battle of Britain books finish.  This is a worthy final volume to this ground-breaking series.

 

Volume Twenty contains:

  • Over 100 original wartime photos
  • 8 combat maps
  • 3 Specially commissioned combat scenes by Piotr Forkasiewicz, one of the world’s leading digital aviation artists.
  • 160 pages.
  • A4 format and printed full colour throughout

About the Author: Simon W Parry is now one of Britain’s leading aviation historians, but his roots are in Surrey where he began his research into the battles and aircraft crashes in the county 30 years ago, a time it was possible to interview many witnesses to the events. His interest in the air war lead him to become a profession researcher at the National Archives, undertaking assignments for those not able to conduct their own investigations. Since the publication of his first book in 1987 he has focussed his attentions on the editing and production of over 40 aviation books for publishers. He is also one of Europe’s most experienced aviation archaeologists, contributing to several TV shows.
