The Battle for Britain: Interservice Rivalry between the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy, 1909-1940 - Tapa dura
Sinopsis
The Battle for Britain is a provocative reinterpretation of both British air and naval power from 1909 to 1940. Anthony Cumming challenges the view that the Battle of Britain was a decisive victory won solely by the Royal Air Force through independent airpower operations. By re-evaluating the early stage of the Mediterranean conflict and giving special emphasis to naval battles such as Calabria and Taranto, Cumming argues that the Royal Navy played an equally important role in defeating Hitler's early advances, buying critical time until the Americans could make a decisive contribution. His argument holds that the RAF's role as an independent arm has been exaggerated and that contemporary strategists can learn from investing too much confidence in independent airpower.

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Presents a short review of British air and naval power from 1909-1940 and represents an attack upon independent airpower.

Librería: Postscript Books, Newton Abbot, DEVON, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Hardcover. Condición: New. The amalgamation of the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Navy Air Service to form the RAF in April 1918 created a fierce competition for resources with the Navy. This provocative study follows the bureaucratic struggles, challenging the conventional view of the superiority of air power to stress the importance of naval actions in the early phases of the Second World War.
