Published in 1961 by military aviation experts Derek Wood and Derek Dempster, The Narrow Margin is widely considered the definitive, heavily-researched account of the 1940 Battle of Britain. The book traces the RAF's development in the 1930s and provides a day-by-day summary of the conflict. It also formed the factual basis for the famous 1969 film Battle of Britain.
