"He who controls the skies controls the war." The jet engine is one of the most transformative inventions that came into its own in the 1950s, during the early years of the Cold War. James Holland explores the race to build a jet engine before the Nazis, and Britain's preparation for a potential World War Three with the new Soviet enemy. This is a story not just of war, but of human advancement.
