Designed before the onset of World War II, the Hawker Hurricane emerged as a fast, maneuverable single-seat fighter that became the backbone of the RAF's Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain. Hurricane: RAF Fighter recounts the aircraft’s design, development and crucial 1940 service, putting the reader "in the cockpit" through a blend of technical analysis and operational narrative that explains how the Hurricane won the majority of aerial victories that helped blunt the German Luftwaffe over Britain.
This illustrated monograph serves as both a technical and historical reference, featuring detailed interior and exterior views, cockpit photography and a service-history narrative of the Hurricane’s combat record. Authored by Air Vice‑Marshal Ron Dick, the book offers an authoritative RAF perspective; bibliographic detail: ISBN13 9781550463569.

Before you enlist a new title into your personal library, check the Condition Report below to see how much action these volumes have seen:
New: Fresh Out of Bootcamp
Flawless and untested. This book is in pristine, new condition and ready for its first assignment.
Like New: Light Combat Experience
Almost new and in great shape. It has clearly been read before and is ready to fight again, but it shows very little wear from its time in the field.
Good: A Few Scars or Shell Shock
A reliable veteran. The book might have some bent corners or a dust cover with a few scratches, but it’s still sturdy and standing tall.
Fair: Battle-Hardened
Visible signs of a long campaign. Expect some stains, bent pages, and perhaps some minor tears on the cover. It’s seen the trenches, but the intel inside is still solid.
Poor: Survived Iwo Jima
This one has been through the meat grinder. It carries noticeable damage, heavy staining, or significant wear—but like any old soldier, it would love to be read one last time before it retires.
