For many years the importance and contribution of the Hawker
Hurricane was eclipsed by the Spitfire but statistically the
Hurricane was superior in the majority of cases. Thanks to Tommy
Sopwith's initiative and gamble the Hurricane was ready at the
outbreak of the Second World War and in service throughout. As this
superbly researched book reveals by examining the roles, actions
and personalities of ten Hurricane squadrons, this iconic aircraft
was not only exceptionally robust but astonishingly versatile. We
track its performance from the Battle of France and Britain through
the Middle East, Italy and on to Burma. It excelled as day and
night interceptor, intruder and importantly as a rocket firing tank
buster. The Hurricane inspired great loyalty among its pilots and
their colourful personalities and thrilling experiences make this
splendid book an informative and entertaining read.
