The Hawker Hurricane, together with the Spitfire, is the most
famous aircraft of the Second World War. Many pilots including
Douglas Bader thought it was superior to the Spit but together they
saved Britain from Nazi invasion and possible defeat. Adrian
Stewart has produced a gloriously atmospheric and nostalgic book
capturing the spirit of this great aircraft and the pilots who flew
them. It tracks the aircraft as it was developed and improved and
follows it to the many theatres of the war where it saw service.
Among the lesser known are Burma and the hazardous convoy
protection both in the Arctic and Mediterranean, flying from
makeshift carriers. This book will fascinate specialist aviation
historians and those who enjoy a rattling good war story, backed by
a superb selection of rare photographs.
