This book is not a history of the Spitfire but a photographic portfolio set in a modern, high technology age. Today we tend to look at the Spitfire as a quintessential work of aerodynamic art in its own right, rather than as an aeroplane designed to destroy enemy aircraft as efficiently as possible. Its name, beauty and track record has made it pre-eminent among Allied waretime aircraft in the minds of the British public, pilots and enthusiasts ever since it personified the spirit of national resistance against Germany when Britain stood alone in the long, hot summer of 1940.
