Re: From Barbarossa to Odessa (Luftwaffe Strikes Pt 1)

Hi there,

i am currently reading.

My impression: the book is more than worthy for its price.

It's quite detailed in describing air combats and their results.
Especially the informations about air actions of VVS and ARR are interesting (and quite new i think).
Also the photos are well in quantity and quality.

Some critics i have to add too;

- the book has a very little focus at ground operations, which are very important (IMHO) to unterstand air operations at the eastern front. Both were very close connected.

- why there is not a word about the claims of Pokryshkin in the first days? (see also BC/RS Vol.1), or i didn't see it?
