Jagdfliegerverbände - Mr. Prien et all bookseries

[PhilippeDM]

Actually, I'm putting my bookcollection in order. I just read that vol 10/II of this fantastic serie is to come out in July. Great news as I find these books to be the ultimate serie covering the Jagdwaffe.
Somewhere in my thoughts and here or in another place there was a provisional broke down list of the volumes of this bookserie. Can someone put me a lead as I lost this link. (Deep in my memory I have something of a 12 part opus...)

Thanks in advance!

I don't know the content breakdown for the remaining volumes in the series, but here's what Jochen Prien had to say about the projected volume count, from a thread back in July 2006:

... as of today I cannot tell how many Volumes here will be in the end if we can ever complete the series. It looks as though with the basic structure of 16 Volumes left unchanged, the overall number of books including the subvolumes may end up between 26 and 28 depending on what material will be available at the time.

Here's a link to the thread itself: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=5541

Thanks, Leon. Just what I was looking for!

Dear Philippe,
dear Leon,
Gentlemen,

the 2006 schedule for the remaining volumes of the JFV sereis is still valid. With Vol. 10/II in print and hopefully to be out before the announced date from struve-druck in June rather than July, we are planning to finnish Vol. 10/III with the rest of the Reichsverteidigungs units and the units based in Norway fighting against the Western allies in 1943 by the end of September so that struve-druck have ample time to roll it out before Christmas this year. This leaves us with Vol 10/IV - Service in the West 1943 - for which there is no detailed time-schedule as yet.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Jochen Prien

Thanks Jochen, for your last info. I found your volume 10/I a fantastic companion to the Mighty Eight War Diary and are eagerly awaiting your next volume.

Do you plan to add specifically something concerning the Industrie Shutz Staffeln accomanying the plane factories?

I am still astonished of this medium, So easily asking questions to one of your favourite authors and getting a quick response...

[Jochen Prien]

Dear Philippe,

thanks for your kind words. The Industrieschutzstaffeln will be dealt with of course.

Vol. 10/III is now being prepared to go to the printers at the end of September 2008 so that - hopefully - we will be able to roll it out before the end of the year.
