About Biggin on the Bump:

This is the story of the most famous fighter station in the world - an airfield inhabited by the shadows of extraordinary men and women. Bob Ogley brings it to life and, from the first page, gives a fascinating insight into the men, the women, the machines and the indomitable spirit of those drawn into conflict from 1916 to 1945 ..... and beyond.

"From the brilliantly named Froglets Publications comes the equally brilliant Biggin on the Bump - a glorious tribute to gallantry on and around the airfield" - Flypast.

"A lively and human story of an exciting time" - The Royal Aero Club Gazette.

"It makes fascinating reading" - Air Pictorial.

"A glorious story" - Aviation News.
