520    Winston Churchill probably had more impact on 20th Century
       British military history than any other person and 
       especially during World War II. Yet of all the many 
       volumes since that war which deal with his relationships 
       with generals and admirals, most surprisingly, there seems
       not to be a single book devoted to Churchill as a would-be
       pilot, and, more importantly, to the relations he had with
       a host of airmen between 1914 and 1945. Exceptional air 
       marshals of his time included Dowding, Park, Portal, 
       Freeman, Tedder, Coningham and Harris. Such men had years 
       of professional expertise behind them and those who had 
       reached the top by 1943 were such strong characters that 
       not even the prime minister could dominate them in policy-
       making. Crucially, Churchill had supported the 
       independence of the RAF from other services, and whilst he
       did bully and cajole, even abuse his airmen, he also 
       listened to them and their plans, and inspired them.
