Axis and Allies Iron Blitz
 Hell Island by Dan McCaffery, The 1942 Siege of Malta was an incredible, against-the-odds triumph for England's Royal Air Force and a small hand of Canadian fliers. Historians have often compared this campaign to that other epic stand-the Battle of Britain. In retaliation for Allied attacts on Axis shipping originating from British held Malta, Hitler and Mussolini decided to starve and bomb Malta out of the war. McCaffery vividly captures the tension of the devastating offensive, bringing to life all the key events of the battle from the March Blitz to the final Allied victory in October. The heroic exploits of air aces Buzz Beurling, Wally McLeod, Moose Fumerton, and John Williams are described in colorful detail. Air history and military history fans will not want to miss this fascinating new account of the important role played by Canadians in one of the most exciting campaigns of World War II.
