Camp X - The final battle is a great read, in particular for anyone interested in reading history that isn't well known, as well as history as it could too easily have become. The fictional portion of the story is well grounded in historical fact and moves the lead characters seamlessly from what really was, into the frightening world of what might have been. The backdrop is the second world war, but with the unthinkable twist that the Battle for Britain had been lost. Unimaginable, yes - but laid out through the characters in the book for the reader to clearly experience the unimaginable.I thoroughly enjoyed both the fiction and the fact of the book. Exciting and realistic.
Camp X sequel a fascinating journey!
