Re: Osprey's obsession on colour eye candy

Nick, I think only Osprey members can post on the forum.

I think the Battle Orders example is really poor as it was a series that catered for more specific readers.

Since you feel strongly about this, I thought perhaps you’d find it worth signing up.

Looks like "He-177 Units of WW2" is by Robert Forsyth due out July. There is also an existing Classic. Would be nicer if Classic would do a Ju-90/290/390 book, IMHO. Big empty hole there unless your German is good enough for Ott.

Robert Forsyth recently did “Shadow Over The Atlantic” for Osprey, all about the Ju 290 and FAGr. 5.

And I have it (I buy a lot of books). It is a good & interesting book, but a comprehensive history of the Ju-90/290/390, in the manner of the better Classics, it is not. The material would make a fair nucleus for such a book, if Forsyth & Classic wanted to pursue it though.
