Smile Re: Battle Of Britain Combat Archive Volume 1

Looks a great series, and I would buy the lot in a tick, BUT 10 volumes?. Forget it. They will never get finished. This series could have been done in two or three books easily. A case in point would be William Green's recently revised "Warplanes Of The Third Reich". Where is volume two and three?
Or another example is how one CAN put a lot into one book. I am referring to a book I have ordered, "Kursk" by Lawrence, which at over 1700 pages will be the largest military book ever published....
The BOB books are a measly 125 pages each. However they are the kind of BOB books I have dreamt about. Just perfect in every way, except for the crazy formula adopted....
