What is 'Sailor' Malan : Battle of Britain legend : Adolph G. Malan about?

"I do not think that [Adolph] Malan could join a squadron without improving it, however good it was . . . he was the best pilot of the War." —Air Commodore Al Deere, C.B.E., D.S.O., D.F.C. The Battle of Britain produced many airmen of great skill and accomplishment—high achievers who made their mark in one of history's most memorable and demanding campaigns. But only a few of these men distinguished themselves in such a way as to become legends in their own lifetimes. Among the greatest of these was Sailor Malan. Here is the story of this talented man, eloquently told by Philip Kaplan, who manages to strike a balance between objectivity and reverence in order to commit Malan's story to paper. Featured too are a series of evocative black and white illustrations that supplement the descriptive text and create a real sense of the character of the man, flourishing as he did in this dramatic wartime context. As Malan continues to inspire young aviators, this book celebrates his legacy for a new generation of pilots and aviation enthusiasts.
