Nearly fine condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. In early 1939, 19-year-old Salopian Eric Lock joined the RAF Volunteer Reserve to fulfil his dreams of flying. Within eighteen months, he found himself pitted against one of the largest air forces in the world, fighting for the survival of his homeland in a pivotal battle that, if lost, had the potential to change the course of world history. This is his full story, a definitive account of the brief life of this very brave young man, cementing his place as one of Britain's true national heroes. Blue cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w photos.
