Re: Air Battle over the Kuban Bridgehead ?
Hello Frank,
No, Christer Bergström’s book on the BoB is unfortunately not available in English. I have the Swedish language book which I found quite interesting to read and I believe it would also interest others. Christer is quite productive and I believe we will see more books coming from him. I understand he has been busy writing many articles lately.
I’m not aware of any book dedicated only to the Kuban air battles, however, there are of course some interesting reading here and there:
A view from the Soviet side can be found in Dmitriy Loza, Attack of the Airacobras, Soviet Aces American P-39s & the Air War Against Germany, University Press of Kansas, 2002, ISBN 0-7006-1140-1.
There is a chapter (10 pages) “Air Battle Over Kuban” in Christer Bergström (with V.Antipov & C.Sundin), Graf & Grislawski A Pair of Aces, Eagle Editions, 2003. This book is worth getting if you appreciate Bergstrom’s other books as I hold it as my favourite out of his production so far.
Best regards,
Göran
