'The Secret Battle For Britain, The RAF’s Handling and Interrogation of Luftwaffe Prisoners of War 1939-1940' by M.S. Morgan.

'This book explores the development of RAF Air Intelligence and its interrogation methods used on captured Luftwaffe airmen from 1939 to the end of 1940, including the story of Franz von Werra, the only Axis PoW to escape and return home. It highlights how intelligence was gathered through covert tactics, interrogation, and 'open-source' materials, providing a detailed picture of enemy pilots, aircraft, units and the general social situation around a unit or airfield community. These efforts played a crucial role in shaping Allied understanding during the Battle of Britain and the Blitz.'
