Klappentext
TELEGRAPH HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025
The Luftwaffe has been historically - almost cartoonishly - depicted as the RAF's antagonist in the Battle of Britain. But how much do we really know about the experiences of those in the Luftwaffe in 1940?
In this brilliant new history, Victoria Taylor uses ground-breaking research and never-before-translated primary sources to reveal the full complexity of the Battle of Britain from a German perspective. Letters and diaries from those in the cockpit, as well as contemporary eyewitness accounts of paratroopers, anti-aircraft gunners and air signalmen, give a revelatory insight into the military, political, social and cultural influences that shaped the men who flew in Hitler's air war.
This is an astonishing new perspective that transforms our assessment of a well-trodden period of history.
