Product Description
Having spent time touring Germany, Alfred Price has compiled this pictorial record of the Luftwaffe's activities during the second half of World War II. The book covers the Luftwaffe's final years of war and depicts its aircraft operations and men in their descent into final but gallant defeat at the hands of the Allies. The Luftwaffe played a vigorous role in the action as it unfolded, but as the war moved on it found itself engaged in grim battles of attrition against opposing air forces equipped with superior aircraft in greater numbers, backed by tremendous industrial might. On one front after another the Luftwaffe was overwhelmed until finally, in the spring of 1944, it suffered the ultimate humiliation of losing control of the skies over its homeland. The majority of photographs that appear in this book come from personal albums. Together they provide a pictorial record of this phase in 20th-century history.
