When you think about it, Stuka's played a huge role in the European warzone during WWII and their killing power was enormous in scale compared to the losses their squadrons suffered.
In this pilot's eye view, we're taken in acute detail through the battlefield theatres of the Blitzkrieg in France, attacks on the British retreat from Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain, the bombing of Malta, escapades in North Africa and Tobruk, onto missions in Crete and, finally, the invasion of the Soviet Union.
A really engaging read with the author's own photographs of the time, to support.
