Description: "This volume deals with the development of Britain's air defence during the years leading up to the outbreak of the Second World War, and the development of the system during the early period of the war, leading up to the Battle of Britain. Originally classified as 'secret', this report was written during the war as an internal Air Ministry history by Cecil James, a historian working for the Air Historical Branch. It is published here for a general audience for the first time."--Jacket.
