"Zerstorer" Hardback by John Vasco and Peter Cornwell - Coming from Wingleader in 2025

I am certainly looking forward to this but wish the publisher would dial things down from '11', however accurate it may be.

"However, this work, by two internationally renowned researchers and authors, John Vasco and Peter Cornwell, whose collective knowledge of events of 1940 surpasses anything that anyone else knows, draws on their decades of research into primary sources."

I think a point is being made and I will say no more than that!

Yeah, but is it a ‘cornerstone of historiography’?

Only one author I'm aware of can make claim, false and grandiose that it is.

To put it to you bluntly, Peter Cornwell on his own could lay claim to that. Add my 45 years of research and knowledge acquired on the Bf 110, together with the contacts made and information obtained from both sides (including the RAF side), and COLLECTIVELY, I would invite you to tell me which person, or group of people, can surpass that collective knowledge on events of 1940.

As for dialing things down from '11' (love the Spinal Tap reference), I believe a certain work out this year has dialled things up WAY beyond 11. Rock 'n roll!
