The great adversaries of yore. This volume is an objective, comparative study of the German Luftwaffe, the Royal Air Force and the American Air Force and shows the famous air battles over Europe and Africa from the perspective of the respective participants. The result is a critical comparison of the various scenarios with figures and authentic, fascinating accounts by the most famous fighter pilots of the nations involved. The reader can virtually "fly along" and gain exciting insights into the memorable historical events, which have lost none of their fascination to this day. An absolute classic.
The author: Edward H. Sims was an American fighter pilot and was himself deployed in Europe. His book is an astonishingly objective and neutral assessment of the three major opponents of the war.
