Christina Goulter
Christina Goulter is a New Zealand-born British military historian who is a senior lecturer in the Defence Studies Department of King's College London. Between 1994 and 1997 Goulter served as an Associate Visiting Professor of Strategy at the US Naval War College in Rhode Island.[1]
Goulter researches and teaches on air power, intelligence and counter-insurgency studies.[2] Her publications include one book, A Forgotten Offensive: Royal Air Force Coastal Command's Anti-Shipping Campaign 1940-1945 (London: Frank Cass, 1995).
In August 2006 she was quoted as arguing that it was the Royal Navy, not the Royal Air Force, that won the Battle of Britain in 1940.[3] Goulter, along with two other historians, later issued a rebuttal, arguing that their holistic view of British defences had been seriously misrepresented. She said that British Air Power, as a whole played the decisive role in victory, and this included Bomber and Coastal Commands, as well as the Fleet Air Arm.[4]
