PLEASE NOTE: FOR BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UK- WE ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL, PAID IN STERLING GBP

A 63-page Osprey (Aircraft of the Aces series) SB book entitled THE LEGENDARY SPITFIRE. Spitfire Mk Is and IIs served only briefly in the frontline with the RAF, but their piots were responsible for achieving impressive scores against the Luftwaffe during 1940/41. This volume details the RAF's first aces of World War 2 who helped stem the German tide during Britain's struggle for survival in the bitter years between 1939 and 1941. Early-mark Spitfires were notorious for their light armament, overheating engines and short range, but during the dogfights over Dunkirk and south-east England, then the first tentative sweeps across France, many pilots achieved scores of note. The exploits of names like Malan, Tuck, and Bader are covered, as are some of the perhaps less celebrated aces like leading Spitfire ace George Unwin.
This book is number 1 of this popular series of books by the respected Osprey Publishing. Over the years Osprey have become well-known for producing some of the best reference books within the field of aviation and military history. Although this book isn't big, it's packed full of useful information relating to the aircraft covered, and some of the famous pilots that flew them. Well presented and illustrated throughout.
This book was published by Osprey in 1999, and is in excellent condition.

TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE: A small handling fee is included in our postage/packing and shipping costs. This is done in accordance to the eBay rules on this matter, and covers us for the additional time and expense which we often have to incur. If you buy several items from us at once, please ask for us to repack and issue a new quote. In that instance the handling charge will only be charged once.
NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE – The vast majority of eBay members that we trade with are 100% genuine and committed to following through with their purchases. There are however, some people that seem to live in a complete fantasy dreamworld (thinking they are members of the SAS, Parachute Regiment, VC or Gallantry Medal Winners, VIP’s, Celebrities etc), OR – they just bid on things “For a Laugh” and then string you along with a long list of excuses for non-payment! Please note that we will not tolerate this type of “bidder”, and do NOT want the hassle of trading with them. We believe it's only fair to expect payment within 14 days from the auction's finish, and would encourage buyers to ensure payment by this date. We WILL file a “Non-Paying-Bidder” Alert Form if payment is not received, and we WILL leave negative feedback and report time-wasters to eBay. If you have any problems with fulfilling this criteria PLEASE DO NOT BID ON OUR AUCTIONS. We are sorry to have to add this to my listing, but we’ve found it necessary - as it seems there are a small proportion of people that come onto eBay with the sole purpose of wanting to ruin things for everyone else. Good luck, and we look forward to trading with you in the near future.
