Eighty years ago, the fate of the world was truly in the balance. After sweeping successes in the Axis's push west through the Low Countries and the conquest of France—which concluded with the dramatic escape of British and Allied forces from Dunkirk—Hitler and his lieutenants looked to Great Britain. This set the stage for the dramatic and heroic “Battle of Britain” which quashed Hitler’s hopes of launching an invasion of the British Isles. Join best-selling author James Holland and the Museum’s Samuel Zemurray Stone Senior Historian Dr. Rob Citino for what is sure to be an exciting and engaging conversation!
