As a child, Dilip Sarkar was fascinated by the haunting image of an anonymous RAF Spitfire pilot. Taken minutes after landing from a Battle of Britain combat, this was Squadron Leader Brian Lane DFC, the commander of 19 Squadron, based at Fowlmere  and author of the stirring firsthand account Spitfire! The Experiences of a Fighter Pilot, published under the pseudonym B.J. Ellan. Deeply moving was the discovery that in 1942 Brian was reported missing after a futile nuisance raid over the Dutch coast.

During the mid-1980s, Dilip began researching the life and times of both Brian Lane and 19 Squadron, forging close friendships with many of the units surviving Battle of Britain pilots and support staff. This enabled identification of the wartime censors blanks regarding people and places in Brians book, and the publication in 1990 of Dilips first ever book, Spitfire Squadron: 19 Squadron at War 1939-41.

Nearly thirty years later, sadly all of the survivors are now deceased, but Dilips close relationship has provided a huge archive of correspondence and interviews in addition to a unique photographic collection. Furthermore, the author, a retired police detective, has thoroughly investigated the life  and death  of Squadron Leader Lane.

This completely new Spitfire! The Full Story of a Unique Battle of Britain Fighter Squadron covers everything we would ever need to know about such a unit during the critical pre and early war period: the social, political, aviation and military history all in one volume  emphasizing the human experience involved and the stories of casualties. With an immense photographic collection  many published here for the first time  this book is destined to become a classic.

So, strap yourself in, turn gun button to fire, and join 19 Squadrons Spitfire pilots during our Darkest and Finest Hours  the ultimate Band of Brothers?
