[Edward]

A History of the Mediterranean Air War Series Volume Seven
Coming in 2026

"Volume Seven covers the strategic bombing offensive from 1 July 1944 until the end of the war in May 1945. It details the increasingly heavy USAAF daylight bombing attacks against targets in southern Germany and Austria, but also the final raids against Romanian oilfields until they fell to the advancing Soviets as the Eastern Front collapsed.

The harrowing story of the efforts to resupply the beleaguered Polish Home Army is described in full as well as continuing the story of the strategic bombing offensive. Despite many difficulties the Luftwaffe and its remaining Axis allies in Hungary and the fascist ANR in Italy fought with grim determination and courage. Losses to fighters and the highly effective flak were heavy. Later the might of heavy bomber force was also used for direct support to the Allied armies battling their way north in Italy.

As in previous volumes the authors offer a chronological narrative of this significant campaign against the industrial capacity of the Third Reich that is complimented with a matrix of claims and losses from all sides, all shown in minute and previously unpublished detail with stunning photographs.
