The first major military campaign fought entirely by air forces, The Battle of Britain, fought between July 10th and October 31st 1940, marked the first major German defeat in the Second World War and a crucial turning point in the conflict. The Battle took its name from the speech given by Prime Minister Winston Churchill to the House of Commons on 18 June: "What General Weygand called the 'Battle of France' is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin." Churchill later summed up the battle with the words, "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few". Pilots who fought in the battle have been known as The Few ever since, at times being specially commemorated on 15 September, "Battle of Britain Day". On this day in 1940, the Luftwaffe embarked on their largest bombing attack yet, forcing the engagement of the entirety of the RAF in defense of London and the South East, which resulted in a decisive British victory that proved to mark a turning point in Britain's favor.…

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. In this bold letter, John Asser reminds A.M. Purcell, the Editor of the The Royal Gazette, of his position in Parliament "to take steps to prevent the beauty of the Island being marred." He appeals to Purcell for help to try and stop "unsightly erections as the Bermudian . . . a very high hotel on the Pont Pleasant site and if we don't botch it we shall see what is a very attractive spot disfigured forever. If the rest of the island is unconcerned about such things surely Pembroke [parish] and the corporation might insist on some protection against eyesores being provided." He jests about a women's petition: "I expect Miss Helen (Meer?) could do something by engineering a monster petition from the women!", adding "Don't bother to answer this." The letter is signed "Yours Sincerely, JAsser" Written on two sides of a 7"x 9" sheet of ivory laid paper imprinted: "Government House, Bermuda". General Sir Joseph John Asser (1867-1949), a British Army officer, served as Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Bermuda from 1922 to 1927. While in service, he received the Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order, the Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath as well as several other accolades. A.M. Purcell, the Editor of The Royal Gazette and Colonist is the most likely recipient of this letter. He was known to poke fun at everybody including himself, and everyone took him seriously but himself. He came to be called "Bermuda's Samuel Pepys." Condition: Fold lines, a few errant spots, generally very good. Signed by Author(s).…
