William Kimber First Edition, first impression 1971.  255 pages plus photographs

A Fine condition hardback book in a Fine condition, unclipped dustjacket. Clean and tight with just a couple of spots to the page edges and a hint of fade to the spine of the dust jacket.  A really nice copy in all respects.

Johnny Kent was a Canadian who joined the RAF before the war. During the Battle of Britain he was a Flight Commander with 303 Polish Squadron and later took over as CO of the famous 92 Squadron.  He was also a test pilot before and after the war, spending time as Chief Test Pilot at Farnborough and ended his career as Station Commander at RAF Tangmere.

A very pleasing copy of a scarce signed Battle of Britain memoir especially flat-signed to the title page.
