Re: Air Battles over the Baltic 1941: The Air War on 22 June 1941 - The Battle for Stalin's Baltic Region

..my copy arrived - very impressed (although I'm usually quite easy to please and have limited knowledge on Russia/Red Army historiography). Page count is 400 (exactly), not the 528 indicated in various places, with the events of 22 Jun 1941 kicking off on page 209, with an account from Trautloft. Translation is just a tad clunky and long-winded; "headquarters section " tactical number yellow 11", "insignia denoting his victories" etc etc. No German terminology used anywhere, aside from rank. It's all 'squadrons' 'wings' 'headquarters officer' etc etc Lots of profile artworks and excellent they are too - if a little small. Around 300 photos
