As typical for Dilip Sarkar, quality of his second book is quite good. I was pleasantly surpised to see even citation about current danger caused by Muslims in the society by S/Ldr Peter Brown, supported by Sarkar: "...but we can instead organise to fight the criminal and other irresponsible societies that are now a fact of life, and that threaten the safety and welfare of ordinary decent citizens. Perhaps it is time for another Battle of Britain to fight the enemy within!". That is unique and welcome nowadays, even if written probably before 1992. For the book itself, it sufferes with some errors in printing like on p. 27 and 28 (year 1942 instead of 1941). The more prevalent Dilip Sarkars problem is that he does not distinct the difference between claim and real Luftwaffe loss. The result is, that he is both unintentionaly lying about results of combat and doing zero combat research. And thats the problem when you otherwise see very good research on the topic, Spitfire R6644 "life" story and men around it. How does is looks like? Sarkar on p. 36: "The Germans failed to escape completely unscathed, however, as Sergeant Wareing destroyed one of their number". That is clear lie. Its is the result of doing no research while writting a book. In reality, Jagdwaffe lost ZERO Me 109 on that day with RAF claiming to destroy 5. It was probably the worst overclaiming day during the Battle of Britain. There are many moments like this in the book. Otherwise, it looks really good. Worthy for such a small price.
