The Spitfire Story Told By Those Who Designed, Maintained and Flew the Iconic Plane The Spitfire is one of the most iconic planes in history, and its story is one of human ingenuity and bravery. This fascinating anthology brings together the stories of those who designed, maintained, and flew the Spitfire, as well as the people whose lives were affected by their connection to the plane. From the birth of the Spitfire in the 1930s to the present day, this collection of first-hand accounts reveals the little-known stories of the men and women behind the plane. You'll hear from fighter pilots, engineers, ground crew, and ordinary people whose lives were touched by the Spitfire. Using exclusive interviews, documents, and photographs from the Imperial War Museums' archive, this book is a treasured collection of small but significant histories that will be of interest to anyone who loves and admires the Spitfire.
