Re: Aufklarer and Courage Alone by Hikoki

The german edition of Aufklaerer is still available at 19.95 GBP from
www.midlandcountiessuperstore.com

I don't know whether the italian edition of "Courage Alone" is still available at the italian book selling Tuttostoria (info@tuttostoria.it)

Please note that this last book, well printed, with nice drawings and pictures,
contains not only many informations about Regia Aeronautica but also many mistakes.

Re: Aufklarer and Courage Alone by Hikoki

Hi fsbofk,

My book 'Aufklärer' can hardly be described as new considering that it was published by Hikoki in October 1997 (original retail price £29.95). IMHO, I think it highly improbable that Amazon have a mint edition in stock and that what they are advertising is probably a second hand copy in good condition.

Regards

Re: Aufklarer and Courage Alone by Hikoki

All,
That's the reason why I do not think Amazon.uk has even the second hand book in stock...I did not get the book in several months, and finally I canceled the order...

Thanks for the info - I did find it a bit hard to believe it would be a new copy, but I'll wait for the order ... or notice ... to arrive.

Re: Aufklarer and Courage Alone by Hikoki

That's a tad high for my budget ! A few weeks ago, I saw a copy listed on eBay as "Buy Now" for US$60 and walked away for some dinner. When I came back to check, it was gone.
