In late spring 1940, Nazi Germany's domination of Europe looked unstoppable. With the British Isles in easy reach since the fall of France, Adolf Hitler was convinced that Great Britain would be defeated in the skies over the southern coast, confident his Messerchmitts and Heinkels would outclass anything the Royal Air Force threw at them. What Hitler hadn't planned for was the agility and resilience of a marvel of British engineering that would quickly pass into legend: the Spitfire. ... Here are edge-of-the-seat tales and heartstopping first-hand accounts of battling pilots, some forced to bail out over enemy territory ; of sacrifice and wartime love ; of aristocratic female flyers ; of the mechanics who braved the Nazi onslaught to keep the aircraft in battle-ready condition
