2 columns of text, 47 lines/column
Second edition, Vaktel Books
trim size: 8.25 by 11-11/16ths inches (596 by 846 points)
(Sorry, my pica-pole only has inches, agate, picas and half-picas, and points)
384 pages, of which the last 2 are ads, 1 page "index" to be downloaded
2 columns of text, 60 lines/column.
Much better paper quality than the first edition, with vastly improved photo quality.
Enjoy!

Thanks Frank
So more pages and more "tightly" written then.
But what about the contents?
All new photos or just a few new added?
Is the text different in giving more basic data, such as more dates, more exact claims/losses?
I am not interested in a book which only expands on personal recollections.
Cheers
Stig
