The Big Show

'THE BIG SHOW is as close as you'll ever get to fighting for your life from the cockpit of a Spitfire or Typhoon. Perhaps the most viscerally exciting book ever written by a fighter pilot.' Rowland White
THE BIG SHOW, his extraordinary account of the war, has been described as the greatest pilot's memoir of WWII.

‘A truly remarkable book … the most gripping descriptions of aerial combat I have ever read’ New York Times
‘A thrilling read … ranks among the finest accounts of war’ Guardian
‘A magnificent story’ Daily Telegraph
‘A classic … gripping, ripping, full of action’ Economist
‘Vividly captures the spirit of air combat’ The Times
'The relentlessness of the flying is extraordinary and the casual loss of life chilling. It really is one of the very best war memoirs ever written: exhilarating, exciting, deeply moving and a book that lingers in the mind long after the last page has been turned.' James Holland
