Infringing Neutrality: The RAF in Switzerland 1940-45

Switzerland, that bastion of neutrality, was in an interesting position during the Second World War. Despite being neutral, the Allies used it as a short cut when flying over enemy territory, their planes often crash-landed there after being damaged over occupied Europe, and Allied airmen made for Switzerland when trying to escape from POW camps. Roger Anthoine has researched the RAF's incursions into Swiss air space, the aircraft that landed there, and the men who sought Switzerland as a safe haven.

Ten Fighter Boys
<p>The extraordinary stories of ten fighter pilots, told in their very own words during the Second World War.</p> <p>First published by Collins in 1942, this utterly compelling collection of first-hand accounts of ten fighter pilots' experiences at the helm of the Spitfires of 66 Squadron paints one of the most realistic depictions of the battle for the skies over wartime Europe.</p> <p>Offering incredible personal insights into the wartime experience - both in the air and on the ground - the stories are told with unaffected zest, by men who were living in the constant presence of death.</p> <p>Five of the original contributors were killed before the book was originally printed, including the books editors, Wing Commander Athol Forbes and Squadron Leader Hubert Allen. Jimmy Corbin, the last surviving contributor and author of the foreword, passed away in December 2012.</p> <p>Written right in the middle of the war, in the pilots' own words, Ten Fighter Pilots is a truly original and unique account of a terrifying time.</p>
