With Wings Like Eagles (The Untold Story of the Battle of Britain)

“Bold and refreshing… Korda writes with great elegance and flair.”  —Wall Street Journal

Michael Korda’s brilliant work of history takes the reader
back to the summer of 1940, when fewer than three thousand young fighter pilots
of the Royal Air Force—often no more than nine hundred on any given day—stood between
Hitler and the victory that seemed almost within his grasp.
Korda recreates the intensity of combat in the “long,
delirious, burning blue” of the sky above southern England and, perhaps, for
the first time, traces the entire complex web of political, diplomatic,
scientific, industrial, and human decisions that led inexorably to the world’s
first, greatest, and most decisive air battle.




Winston Churchill memorable said about the Battle of
Britain, “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to
so few.” Here is the story of “the few,” and how they prevailed against the
odds, deprived Hitler of victory, and saved the world during three epic months
in 1940.
