THE NARROW MARGIN

This gives a clear, compact and microscopically close reading of the Battle of Britain in World War II. The battles themselves are divided into five phases between July 11 and October 30 and then set against a complete operational day-to-day diary. The authors leave nothing unsaid -- the expansion of the RAF, the Luftwaffe development, the rise of Nazi Intelligence, Churchill and his canniness, etc.
