Due to the failure of the day campaign during what has become known as the Battle of Britain, on 7 September 1940, the Luftwaffe commenced bombing London and major cities, predominantly by night. What became known as the Blitz continued until 10 May 1941 with many towns across the country being attacked and London being struck 57 nights in succession.

Much has been written about the Blitz from a British perspective but this book tells the story from the viewpoint of the German aircrew involved, many of whom were shot down and taken prisoner. Using over 30 first hand accounts and previously unpublished photos, the book details the Luftwaffe's assault against the U.K., covering the major attacks and those that occurred during the remaining months of that year. Integrated with accounts from the aircrew of RAF's embryonic night fighter force as they fought against the Luftwaffe in very difficult and sometimes primitive circumstances, this book provides a new perspective on the Blitz.
