Santiago,

Most likely this series of books published by Wing Leader:

https://www.wingleader.co.uk/shop/lu...laims-volume-4

By Johannes Mathews and John Foreman.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Re: Series of book on Luftwaffe fighter aces

Red Kite/Wingleader published the books as a limited edition with signed sticky labels for each volume. This "edition" has obviously sold out. But the original four volumes are still available from the publisher. See my post above from November 1.

Enjoy!

Frank.

Are the revisions significant? I'm quite fond of the book so wondering how far up my "Hurry, Get It Immediately!" list the revised edition should be placed.

New photos but from a words point of view, no new material has emerged since 1994!

Re: Series of book on Luftwaffe fighter aces

Thanks, Chris! I'm sure I'll pick it up sometime for the new photos, though I don't feel the same sense of urgency to get it as I do for your forthcoming Do-17 opus.

I can't remember how long ago I purchased Brothers In Arms (20 years?); for some reason I didn't realize it was your first book. Cheers!
