Since it is also written in English it is, as usual, way ahead of Osprey's statement "The first etc" . . .
Well, you can't trust the marketing team at Osprey . . . or basically anyone who makes a claim for "The first"

However, many Osprey books are a "gateway drug" to something with more detail and better photos.

Thanks for the heads up on Suomen Ilmavoimat 1928-40.

Now I do have a copy of his Red Wings in the Winter War, 1939-1940 on my bookshelf. Spectacular photos.
