"A very exciting book, even though one knows the outcome. Very interesting to learn how Dowding played things close to the vest to keep the Germans guessing. On the one hand Dowding seems like he was a very unappreciated genius; on the other hand he seems to have been intensely disliked on every front, Too bad...he deserved better."
"The first half of the book was intriguing to me, as an engineer. It dealt with the pre-planning on the part of Great Britain prior to the Battle of Britain and the design and engineering of the generation of planes that would fight the battle, on both sides. About midway through the book shifted to more of a political/logistical tale and became far less interesting. In the end, the book was due back at the library before I had completed it, so I returned it and have not been inclined to check it out again to finish it."
"Great book for anybody with even a passing interest in World War II history. Everybody has heard of the Battle of Britain, but, for me at least, this book really filled in a lot of details I was not aware of."
