A ?? RE: Osprey books 'elite units' series...
 

Guys:

I don't suppose any of you have heard if Osprey books is planning to add any more LW titles to their 'Elite Unit' Series; so far I have all the one's they've released for units of the Jagdwaffe: JG's2, 27, 52, 54 & Sturmgruppen; Since I sort of like the Osprey series (even with all of it's faults, I like it as a 'thumbnail reference) I was wondering if anyone has heard if they're planning on a series on JG1 & it's 'twin sibling' JG11?
Anyone out there have their hand on Osprey's pulse?

thanks, ahead of time

Latest HUMINT from Osprey land is that they are still interested in Luftwaffe subjects in their various series so, if someone has the photos, art references and has not become a member of "Osprey Anonymous", do get in touch with them.

Bill Stone's Second World War Books site www.stonebooks.com regularly posts publishers' "forthcoming" lists and has a page devoted to Osprey (and many other publishers of course) which was recently updated.

It's also an excellent source of informed reviews of air, military and naval books.

Don't know if you know, but Kagero did a very good little volume on JG11

..they are also about to bring out Vol IV of their JG 27 series covering 1943-45 - worth getting if you can't read Ring or Prien
