This impressive volume includes both a concise
and penetrating historical analysis of the rise and fall of Nazi air power, and a comprehensive technical directory of all the major Luftwaffe aircraft flown in combat and in training. The wealth of illustrations, many of them In color make it perhaps the most attractive as well as one of the most authoritative books ever to be published on the subject.
Tony Wood's narrative charts the birth and growth of tlie Luftwaffe, its successes and failures against Allied air attack, the defense of Germany against the growing might of the Allied Bomber Command and the eventual parallel decline of Luftwaffe resources and morale as the Third Reich crumbled. Concise statistical information is also given concerning aircraft production, victories and losses, leading aces and bombs dropped, and Luftwaffe organisation.

Bill Gunston's technical section provides a detailed analysis of the origins of the Luftwaffe's aircraft, their dimensions, engines, armament, performance, history and development. His highly researched data is complemented by a profuse selection of color profiles, cutaway drawings, photographs and three-view diagrams. Every aircraft is accurately illustrated and its importance as part of the amazing Nazi war machine authoritatively summed up.
"We certainly know of no other single volume, even at twice the price of this one, that covers the subject so fully, authoritatively and attractively." Air International, London
