Description: The account of the RAF and Commonwealth pilots who flew Hurricanes in defence of Malta between June 1940 and April 1942. Most of the Hurricanes which held this tiny outpost were flown from the decks of aircraft carriers or bases in North Africa, while a handful of fighter pilots arrived by Sunderland flying boats. Many of these men were inexperienced and quickly paid the supreme price, particularly when the Messerschmitt pilots of the elite 7/JG26 arrived in Sicily in early 1941. Illustrated with black & white photographs, dustjacket, hardcover.Brand new, unused condition.
