Overview
Along with the Spitfire, the Hurricane is best known for its role in the Battle of Britain, during which Hurricanes destroyed more enemy aircraft than all forms of defense combined. These British-made fighters went on to serve with distinction in all theaters of World War II, both as Sea Hurricanes protecting armed merchant vessels, and as ground-attack fighters fitted with rockets and anti-tank weaponry. Author Peter Jacobs has collected hundreds of rare black-and-white photographs to accompany this thorough history of the Hurricanes development and service.Book Details
