SPITFIRE SUMMER :WHEN BRITAIN STOOD ALONE

Book ID/图书代码： 02670000B12789

English Summary/英文概要： Summer 1940: Nazi Germany was swiftly tightening its grip on Europe. Hitler’s forces appeared to be invincible, having swept through Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands and France. Invasion seemed inevitable as the Fuhrer’s eyes turned to Britain, isolated against the might of fascism. But he reckoned without the indomitable will and spirit of the British people and their leader, Winston Churchill. Spitfire Summer tells the story of that extraordinary time. Packed full of unique archive material and first-hand accounts, it tells the story of the men and women who fought and won the Battle of Britain in that fateful summer: the summer of the Spitfire.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 1940年，荷兰，比利时和法国相继被德国占领，而英国则从登刻尔刻撤出军队，继续战斗。军人在内地巡逻，妇女在地里耕作，家里的金属盘被献出来制造战斗机。当德国的轰炸机飞临英国上空时，“飓风”和“烈妇”立刻起飞，给敌人以迎头痛击。这是少数人抗击多数人并取得胜利的战斗，是英国历史上的光荣时刻。

About the Author/作者介绍： MALCOLM BROWN, formerly a very successful documentary director for television, has been a freelance historian at the Imperial War Museum since 1989. With a substantial list of books to his credit, primarily focusing on the First World War, he has taken a special pleasure in writing for the first time about the war that he himself remembers, finding it both rewarding and moving to revisit, as a historian, a period which he originally saw through the eyes of a child.
