Brookes. This chronological history examines the strategic balance of the Luftwaffe and their Blitzkrieg tactics in the first phase of Operation Barbarossa, the German attack against the Soviet Union. It then analyzes the changing balance of power as the Russians employ more potent aircraft - including many supplied by Britain and the U.S. - turning the tide of war against the Germans. Numerous illustrations accompany the well-researched and authoritative text. 160 pages, B&W photographs, maps, 7½"x 10", hardcover. #0024012
