A Few of "The Few": Australians and the Battle of Britain

During World War II, those 'few', who were the combat soldiers of Fighter Command, have been immortalized by their deeds and through the words of Winston Churchill.

The author has focused on those few who were Australians. He has done so through the device of a diary.

This captures the atmosphere of Britain, the Royal Air Force and Fighter Command - its operations and people - and illuminates the part which Australians played in the Battle of Britain.
