The author, "General of the Fighter Pilots" during the decisive phase of the air war, fills a gap in war literature with his book. It reports on the courageous and, in the last years of the war, hopeless deployment of the fighter pilots. Galland describes the origins of the fighter weapon, its use in Spain and its successes in the Polish and Western campaigns. From the decisive phases, the Battle of Britain, to the end, the reader learns the context and background of one of the most exciting and harrowing chapters of the Second World War.
