The Battle of Britain is a thrilling full-color graphic novel
following the pilots of the Royal Air Force and German Luftwaffe during
World War II as they battled for supremacy in the conflict that saw the
fate of Britain hanging in the balance.
In the summer of 1940, the bombs began to fall over Britain. Seeking to
pave the way for a full-scale invasion, Luftwaffe bombers flew over the
English Channel, dropping their deadly payload on key targets across the
south of England. Scrambling to meet them were the pilots of the Royal
Air Force. Men from Britain, the British Empire, and Commonwealth, and
even volunteers from occupied and neutral territories took to the skies
against the might of the German forces. The Battle of Britain had begun.
Delving into the battle through the eyes of the pilots who lived through
it, as well as the men and women in support roles on the ground, this
vibrant graphic novel combines expert knowledge and master storytelling
to bring the campaign to life, from the epic dogfights along the coast
to the terror of the London Blitz.
