Sobre este artículo
Shrewsbury: Airlife, 1992. Hardcover. Fine/near fine. The first biography to be written of Air Chief Marshal Sir Trafford Leigh-Mallory, who was described in his obituary in 'The Times' as 'one of the most capable and talented air commanders of the war.' Known throughout the RAF as 'LM', he commanded one of the two main Fighter Groups during the Battle of Britain. With his subordinate, Douglas Bader, he was involved in the still-running controversy about the use of the 'Big Wing', a tactic fiercely opposed by Keith Park, commander of 11 Group. This vollume fills an important gap in the literature of World War II and will make a fascinating read for any students of the wartime RAF and/or the Battle of Britain. Contains 200 pages, 22 x 15cm, with 20 pages of b&w photos. Blue cloth boards in very good pictorial dust jacket. Internally, very good: clean, bright and unmarked in excellent bindings. Looks, feels and smells like new.
