Bostons over Hungary book

Hi all,

Let me promote what I think is rare and nice book.
It is called "Bostonok a Magyar Egen" (Bostons over Hungary) from Gabor Horvath.
Book is a softback, 264 pages full of info from russian archive and authors correspondence and research. I assume 95% is never seen or presented in such a form. It deals with fate and history of 5. and 17.VA Bostons but not only those. suggestions to camouflage use orders for Il-2 and fighet units are mentioned, as well as described style of numbering of the planes withing the units.
With price of about 25 EUR including postage it is well worth to have and study book (even if written in such a complicated language as Hungarian is, however google translate and table formats of some info helps a lot )
regards
