It was a preorder scheduled to ship out at the end of 2012, but it got pushed back at least 5 times.

I got a E-mail notice last week that it was available. Do let us know what you think of it David.

So far I really like the book. I wish as had more pictures (as I think you can never have too many) but it's been a fascinating read so far (about 20% in).

Two very recent addition to my library:

The one on P-38 is the most recent edition of the book and is plenty of very good pictures.

Instead, I bought the one on Fiat G-50 because is a bird I know very little and because there will be soon a kit in 1:32 that I will very likely add to my collection.

I've just acquired a copy of "Fly for Your Life" by Larry Forrester. Its a biography of Wing Cdr Robert Tuck. Looks to be interesting

 

[vikingBerserker]

Excellent gents!

 

[futuredogfight]

Picked up Lou Drendel's "Air War Iraq: Operation Iraqi Freedom" from the Dover Air Mobility Command Museum. Pics coming soon!

 

[Wayne Little]

Good scores guys!

 

[GrauGeist]

Finally got my copy of "The Me262 Stormbird"

Been wanting to get it for a while now and looks like I'll be in for a good read

 

[davebender]

Read that awhile back. Good stuff about flying Hurricanes and Spitfires during first half of WWII.

 

[Lucky13]

Not a military subject, but fit right in with my other railroad books...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Air Vangaurd's #4,Martin B-26 Marauder just came in. Looking through it now.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Very nice!

______________

Terry you were right, Camp Z was excellent!

 

[Airframes]

Haven't heard of that series before Aaron. I'd be interested to know what it's like - I only have the Squadron Signal book, and an osprey 9th AF units book covering the B-26.
David, I thought you might like it. Hess seemed to be a strange person, but an interesting story nonetheless.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Terry, Martyn Chorlton is the author, Adam Tooby did the digital art work and Henry Morshead was also involved. It is put out by Osprey Plublishing. And it seems to be a little more detailed than the Squadron books, but that's just my opinion. This is the first book of theirs that I have seen and it is #4 in the series.

I received "A History of the Mediterranean War....Volume 1:North Africa June 1940-January 1942" by Christopher Shores and Giovanni Massimello on Friday and have just had a chance to have a quick look through it.
It's pretty much a day by day account and at first perusal is as good as you'd expect from those authors, which is very good indeed.
