Re: Mediterranean Air War by Chris Shores
The book is listed on both Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. With a June 1, 2016 release date. Which at this point is just a guess, since we haven't turned in the manuscript. It is also listed as 736 pages, which is the size of Volume 2, so again, just a guess.
Enjoy! Frank.

Re: Mediterranean Air War by Chris Shores
Update from the Stone & Stone web site:
News from Christopher Shores 12 May 2016 Author Chris Shores kindly submitted this update on A History of the Mediterranean Air War, 1940-1945, volume three: Tunisia and the End in Africa, November 1942 - May 1943: "We are proceeding on target as at 6 May 2016! Page proofs with us and have been checked. Last of the indexing being done currently and should be complete by next week. Going to the printers early June, and planned launch at Duxford Air Show in early July. Circa 630 pages plus index. Jacket cover showing 14th Fighter Group P-38 intercepting formation of Ju 52/3ms. "The team is already quietly working on Vol 4 which we are getting pretty excited about - but please don't press us yet for programme. We need a bit of a rest after Vol 3! I also suddenly realised that this year marks the 50th Anniversary of the publication of the first 'Aces High' - so I am now in my 80th year. Giovanni and Frank are both in their 70s and Russell, although somewhat younger has nevertheless now retired from the 'day job'. Even Winfried admits to beginning to see the first glimmers of retirement light at the end of the tunnel! More news around the end of the year." Ed |

Re: Mediterranean Air War by Chris Shores
MAW3 went to the printer at the end of May. It is John Davies (publisher of Grub Street military books) hope/intention to have the book available at the Duxford Air Show in early July. Chris and Giovanni are expected to be there on the Saturday of the air show, and I have sent a (small) supply of signed sticky labels to Chris for my virtual appearance.
Grub Street usually appears at The Aviation Bookshop tent. Enjoy! Frank.

Re: Mediterranean Air War by Chris Shores
John Davies has emailed the authors of MAW3 to say that the first copy has been received from the printer. I would therefore expect it to be available at the Duxford Air Show July 9/10, with Chris Shores and Giovanni Massimello in attendance on the 9th. And I just mailed some signed sticky labels to Chris. He also states that the books should be shipped to the US in the first week in July. They should therefore be available in September, if not before.
Enjoy! Frank.
