Publisher's Summary
Guy Mayfield was the Station Chaplain at RAF Duxford during the Battle of Britain. His diary is a moving account of the war fought by the young pilots during that summer of 1940, providing a unique and intimate insight into one of the most pivotal moments in British history.
Mayfield frequently spoke to pilots who knew they may not survive the next 24 hours, and his diary provides a vivid account of the fears and hopes of the young men who risked their lives daily for the defence of Britain.
IWM historian Carl Warner brings a compelling and direct new perspective to this historic battle.
