Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

For those interesting in something different, this is due out late Summer:

Blurb is wrong-204 pilots and 300 photos.


If anyone is interested, I managed to get this out of the publisher:

Thanks as always Christer

Re: Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

thanks! - looking forward to it. Just finished your 'Knights of the Battle of Britain' - nice book! How do they get their own blurb wrong though ?

Re: Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

Thanks Neil. I too sometimes wonder how they do get things so wrong-the latest Channel 5 documentary is proof enough!

At last:

Actually 285 pages and I have just spent a day proof reading the PDF so as soon as I get a date, I will tell you all

But why the cover photo iż from MTO?

Re: Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

Because the St Kap 2nd from left us in the book. I did mention this to P&S and as we say never judge a book by its cover!

Re: Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

But you know that people will buy it on-line so BoB and MTO together will cause some doubts...

Re: Luftwaffe Aces in the Battle of Britain
 

I am not overly concerned as it doesn't say MTO on the cover and the cover is illustrative of fighter pilots (all of whom did fly in the BofB) and the aircraft they flew. In the book, the subsequent careers and fates of the 204 pilots are detailed so it covers all Fronts
