Stanley Paul & Co First Edition, first printing 1988. 180 pages and 16 pages of photographs.
Fine condition hardback book in blue boards with a Very Good condition dustjacket. Pleasingly, the pages are clean, bright and white, not browned which is a common characteristic of this book. A great copy.
Hugh ‘Cocky’ Dundas was a Battle of Britain fighter ace. He was Douglas Bader’s wingman, led a Spitfire wing in the invasions of Sicily and Tunisia and became the youngest ever Group Captain in the RAF at the age of 24. After a distinguished post war business career he was knighted in 1987 and died in 1995.
A lovely signed first edition Battle of Britain memoir.
