Taking London Winston Churchill and the Fight to Save Civilization by Martin Dugard

 I agree with other NetGalley reviewers that the title of this book is somewhat misleading. It’s really a book about fighter pilots and the lead-up to the Battle of Britain. There is not that much about Chirchill. However, it’s written in an exciting, tense style which takes you right into the heart of a harrowing London Blitz. You can almost see the bombs falling as the brave Londoners go about their daily business! 

Martin Dugard tells the stories of several of the pilots, including wealthy American Billy Fiske, Peter Townsend and Richard Hillary. Many are extremely tragic. I liked this book and Martin Dugard’s writing style.

I received this ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
