Writen by English author DE Stevenson and first published in 1940, The English Air deals with the experiences of a young man, half German and half English, who comes to Britain in the days leading up to WWII, convinced of the justice of the German cause. Only as he sees the essential goodness and kindness of his English relatives and their friends and realizes just how horribly he has been deceived by Hitler's propaganda machine does he change his mind, joining a German underground movement and risking his life to try to tell his fellow Germans the truth about Hitler's vaunting ambitions.
