Overlapping it was the bombing campaign against London and other cities that started during September and lasted until May 1941. This was referred to by journalists at the time as "The Blitz" and this is how it is now referred to in all British accounts of the War.
(The article in "The Seventy great Battles of All Time", says: "Date: July-September 1940" and says that by "mid-September...the battle was effectively over.") [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 23:22, 6 August 2008 (EDT)
