Description

SPITFIRE The New Zealand Story : A comprehensive account of the long and valorous history of the aircraft and New Zealand’s association in its design and test flying done by Motueka’s Arthur Clouston and Petone’s Henry Ramsbottom-Isherwood.

At the outbreak of WWII many young New Zealand pilots went to the RAF, and by the end of the War some 1000 of them had piloted either the Spitfire or its naval equivalent the Seafire.

With maps, diagrams and hundreds of photographs. Spitfire: The New Zealand Story is a fitting testimony to the men and women who sacrificed their lives defending their country in the indomitable Spitfire
