Re: NEW BOOK - LUFTWAFFE & THE WAR AT SEA

It seems that mr. Antonīs primary concern in his continued critiques is not the content but who did it. Any author not having his beloved academic degree is a fraud, liar and incompetent. Yet, this same Anton has applauded the work of Eric Bergerud whose work is utter Thomasmanure. It is perverse that Anton sees a history degree as essential for serious aviation historians, yet proper understanding of e.g. aircraft engineering seems to be of zero importance to him. Otherwise his praise for the Eric Bergeruds cannot be understood.

As for primary documents and their presentation, e.g. the Finnish translation of the transcript of the Soviet Winter War conference at Kremlin in April 1940 must be an utter failure as it e.g. lacks description of the religious background of the participants even though the book is edited by two well known academic historians. Perhaps the publisher should have listened to massa Antonīs genius.
