London: Secker & Warburg, 1960. Octavo, blue cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 255 pp. Very Good, with lightly rubbed edges and bookplate; in a Near-Fine dust jacket with darkened spine. From dust jacket: With his last book The Biritish, Mr. Drew Middleton gave a brilliantly balanced picture of the customs, problems and achievements of post-war Britain.

How close the batle was, how much hung in the balance and how that battle went is presented by the distinguished correspondent Drew Middleton who was reporting the events for the Associated Press. The forces at the command of the RAF - charged to defend the British Isles - were pitifully small in comparison to those of the German Luftwaffe, out to break the back of the English. An impartial military observer would have scoffed at the idea that so few would be able to do so much to so many.
