Reviews
On Mar 24 2011, Patrick1952 said:
Excellent description of the heroic struggle to keep England safe during the horrific night time bombing by the Luftwaffe. We take for granted so many modern conveniences such as GPS navigation, AIS (automatic identification system), sophisticated radar (compared to what was available in WW2). Peter Townsend personifies the great 'few' whom Winston Churchill spoke, and did an excellent job relating their experiences.
