 "Angels Eight -- Normandy Air War Diary"  by David W Clark 
  
 Many are surprised to learn that the fierce battle in the skies over the 
 Normandy beaches was much like the Battle of Britain -- both in duration, 
 about 80 days, and in severity, about 3,000 aircraft shot down. Squadron 
 records of German and Allied units in the Normandy Campaign reveal details 
 of nearly every aerial encounter that occurred and the pilots who flew them. 
  
 In addition, read about the day-to-day lives of the members of one RAF 
 Commonwealth wing operating from French soil as described from squadron 
 records and in the words of their pilots' combat reports. This is a book 
 filled with factual detail written by one whose brother fought and died in 
 the Normandy Air War. 
  
 Read all about it and order it from:
