[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Just got notice that my second Volume of Fock-Wulf Fw190 should be here on November 6th.

 

[vikingBerserker]

That actually looks pretty interesting Jelmer.

I'm looking forward to it as well Aaron!

Pretty happy with this latest addition. Not a book, but a magazine really. I don't buy this magazine regulary 'cause for a 50 page magazine little under 20 euro is a pretty darn steep price to my mind...but I had to have this issue since it has an article and some rarely seen photo's on Helmut Lents Bf-110G-4. This naturally has to be turned into a 1/48 build....[surfs to webshop and orders another Eduard G-4]

 

[vikingBerserker]

NICE! I agree with you about the pricing, but they really are wonderful.

Indeed, in terms of content this series is quite extraordinary. I can't begin to think about the costly and time consuming research that must go into putting this series together

NICE!!!!

Commando Extraordinary: A Biography of Otto Skorzeny and The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill look very interesting.

I hope that stash came with shelves!

 

[Njaco]

Nope, unfortunately. The Churchill biography is two books: Vol. One and Two, 700 pages each book and only goes up to 1940!

Talking to the pre-wife about shelves. I haven't even begun to check out the Civil war books. There are just as many!

Nice one Paul, anything by the late Mr. Freeman is worth having, all his work is excellent. Got three of his 'Mighty 8th' series, and some of his other books too.
