Description

The "phoney war" of September 1939 to April 1940 was far from phoney for the air forces of Britain, France and Germany. Luftwaffe veterans of the Spanish Civil War were pitted against well-trained British and French airmen, and losses over the Franco-German border and the North Sea were heavy. This book chronicles the aviation events of this period of World War II.
