Broomfield, Keith, and Percy, Ronald, and Sturgess Garden City, NY: Doubleday and Company, Inc., 1968. Doubleday and Company, Inc. edition [stated]. Hardcover. illus. (part col. ) 22 x 26 cm. 63, [1] p. The Second World War came in with the last days of the fabric-covered fighter biplane; it went out with the jet interceptor and the atomic bomb. In the first half of the war the battlefields of Europe and Russia were dominated by the greatest air power then in existence--the Luftwaffe. In this volume, the emphasis is deliberately placed on he squadron service of the major German fighter aircraft rather than on their mechanical details, and it was hoped that the reader would then see the various types in perspective against the whole background of the air war. Condition: Good. No dust jacket. Cover has some wear and soiling, including sticker residue on front cover.
