Dave Dawson at Dunkirk marks the very beginning of Robert Sidney Bowen's classic series of World War II adventure stories for boys.
Published in 1941, barely a year after the disastrous Allied retreat at Dunkirk, this novel struck a chord among members of the American and British public, selling extraordinarily well in paperback form. We join the protagonist Dave Dawson, who must escape the German war machine against all odds during what is arguably the most chaotic retreat in the history of warfare.
The success of his premier fiction led Bowen to produce no fewer than fourteen sequels, all of which starred his gallant, brave and courageous hero Dave Dawson. Dawson himself mirrors his creator (a former RAF pilot in World War One) with the prolific adventures and successes he enjoys in a variety of locations during the Second World War.
Today the Dave Dawson series remains quite popular, in part for their readability and the memories they gave to the wartime generation of youngsters who enjoyed them. This edition is presented unabridged and complete.
