In depth bios of Otto Kittel and Gordon Gollob

Do in depth bios of these two pilots exist in English? If not, is someone planning ones? By in depth I mean something like the recent Graf&Grislawski book.

Re: In depth bios of Otto Kittel and Gordon Gollob

Dear Jukka,
There is a biography of Otto Kittel by Franz Kurowski, but it is in German. I have just looked at Amazon and there are two in English, but they are not available https://www.amazon.de/KITTEL-GIFFARD...s=books&sr=1-2


https://www.amazon.de/Otto-Kittel-Ro...s=books&sr=1-3


And about Gordon Gollob there is nothing, I'm afraid.

Hi Jukka,

Although not quite as in-depth as the Graf & Grislawski book, Air War Publications will soon publish an eArticle about Otto Kittel. I know you aren't the biggest fan of electronic articles, but hopefully what we release will be one of the better summaries of his life and career written in English.

Cheers,
Andrew A.

Hi Flavio,

Thanks for the interest. The article is close to finished now, but due to my forthcoming trip to Europe, publication will have to wait until October, unfortunately. We'll let you know as soon as it's available.

Cheers,

Jukka, I had the Franz Kurowski book “Luftwaffe Aces” that was in English and it seemed to have been put together from Nazi propaganda articles from the war. I found some parts that might have been actually from possible interviews with Kittel but had some inaccuracies.
