Summary:
An interesting little look at the top scorer in the Battle of Britain, one of the wave of WWII-related paperbacks that came out in the 1960s-70s. Talks about his string of adventures in the BoB, then his move to the CBI; all in all, a short but interesting read including some interesting tales like downing the Heinkel 111 that bombed Buckingham Palace, and then unknowingly chewing the fat with the King himself and buying him a beer, much to some officers in the bar's chagrin.
