"An absorbing read, which vindicates the RAF"-- "RAF Historical
Journal"
"Leveraging mission logs and splicing firsthand written accounts,
the narrative is both cohesive and seamless. The details are
incredibly rich, yet not burdensome."-- "Air & Space Power
Journal"
"With the recent release of the blockbuster film on the same
subject, Franks' recounting of the air battle for Dunkirk is timely
for those who left the movie theater wanting more... AIR BATTLE FOR
DUNKIRK is recommended for those who loved the film and wanted more
context. This book is especially recommended for those who are
interested in aviation history."--Nicole Granados "Picture This
Post"
