But he reckoned without the indomitable will and spirit of the British people and their leader, Winston Churchill. ‘Spitfire Summer’ tells the story of that extraordinary time. Packed full of unique archive material and first-hand accounts, it tells the story of the men and women who fought and won the Battle of Britian in that fateful summer: the summer of the Spitfire.”
