Re: Black Tulip: The Life and Legacy of Erich Hartmann
 

This aberration of a book was recently published in Finnish. I just took a look at it at a local library. First I checked the reference notes section: not a single archival reference! Then the foreword. And it became clear that the book is no biography, it is a political pamphlet. One of his references is titled "How Whiteness Distorts Our Democracy, With Eddie Glaude jr.". In other words, pure wokeist propaganda.

Re: Black Tulip: The Life and Legacy of Erich Hartmann
 

As I noted earlier, the word "myth" in the subtitle made me instantly suspicious about the real motives of the author. His professional background just added to it. But, apparently, there is always a market for books that "debunk the myth" of a famous German pilot, a "Nazi" by default. I am wondering why such books aren't written about Soviet 'ace' pilots as well, "Communists" by default...
