  Flown by Victoria Cross recipient Lanoe Hawker and the members of No 24 Sqn, the ungainly yet nimble DH 2 helped the Allies attain air superiority over the Somme in early 1916 and hold it through the summer. That is, until the arrival of the Albatros D II, a machine built for speed and with twin-gun firepower. This book deals with these aircrafts.
