Re: Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain

Facts only mean what they mean. Motivations for a particular action or battle, if not known, are not subject to speculation. At least not in a history book. Like a puzzle with some pieces missing, if the bulk of the documented events tells the historian what happened then you're done. Full stop.

Others may take up the job of looking for those missing pieces. And I have books on military subjects that have little or nothing that has come before them. In other words, they only cover some parts of the story.
