Re: Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain
And why "Adolph Hitler's forces", rather than "the German Army". They don't say "Chamberlain watched" or "Churchill watched".
And, anyway, "Great Britain" is wrong as it should be "The United Kingdom"! Did not the Navy, too, stand in the way of invasion?

Re: Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain
Publishers seem very fond of WW2 titles beginning “Hitler’s …”, “Churchill’s …” or “Stalin’s …” but not so much “Roosevelt’s …”

Re: Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain
The blurb suggests that Ms Taylor is the first author to recognize that the Luftwaffe in 1940 was not just a "cartoonish antagonist". So that is where Wood and Dempster, and Mason, went wrong.
