Chris,

I just picked up Roba's Jagdwaffe aces book produced by the same publisher in the same format. To be honest if the Stuka book is anything like this (no reason to think that it won't be...although they are cellophane wrapped on French bookshelves, so no browsing possible..) I'd think twice about getting it. It's what you'd describe as a 'coffee-table' book - large full page pics of smiling aces, comparatively few pics of aircraft and lots and lots of white space..in this case the first 7 pages of this particular 192-page book are either all white space or just have a paragraph or two of text on them, each chapter page (about 20 of them) just one pic in the middle of an otherwise blank page, no doubt some art grad's idea of trendy layout and design. Otherwise as Sharkers says Roba's opinionated text always makes for interesting reading and there are a decent number of 'new' pics...I've no idea why Lela Presse didn't get these and give them their treatment
