description: Messerschmitt Bf109 in the West closely examines the Bf109 which was the dominant fighter of the early years of World War II and a revolutionary aircraft in its time. With images drawn largely from private collections most of them never before published in book form this volume traces the story of the Bf109 from its origins to its triumph over France and its fate over southern England in late 1940.
