The Battle of Britain tells the true, momentous story of one of the most crucial conflicts in British history. This book, by an authority on aviation and the Royal Air Force, gives a graphic day-to-day account of the classic battle, both in the air and on the ground. It considers events from many vantage points; from Churchill and Dowding – to The Few who fought. In the air it strikes a balance between an overview of the long-term combat strategy and first-hand accounts of individual encounters seen from the pilots-eye-view.

Autor starał się w miarę dokładnie prześledzić dzieje wyprawy Rakoczego w Rzeczypospolitej, począwszy od przejścia Przełęczy Wereckiej aż po kapitulację pod Międzybożem.

By August 1945, World War II was over in Europe, but the fighting continued between American forces and the Japanese, who were losing but determined to fight till the bitter end. And so it fell to a new president--Harry S. Truman--to make the fateful decision to drop two atomic bombs--one on Hiroshima and one on Nagasaki--and bring the war to rapid close. Now, even seventy years later, can anyone know if this was the right choice? In a thoughtful account of these history-changing events, Jess Brallier explains the leadup to the bombing, what the terrible results of it were, and how the threat of atomic war has colored world events since.
