610 (County of Chester) Squadron formed in February 1936 as a bomber squadron, but transferred to Fighter Command as World War II loomed. The book's main focus is on 610 Squadron's courageous story during the Dunkirk evacuation and the Battle of Britain, when it paid a heavy sacrifice to become one of Britain's most successful Spitfire squadrons.
